Play in 11 remastered stadiums, choose from 24 original teams, and compete across 6 unique game modes with a roster of 30 beloved Backyard characters.

From classic modes like pick-up games, reimagined modes like batting practice, and brand new modes that’ll become instant hits, there’s a world of Backyard fun waiting to be explored.

Our game is packed full of exciting achievements, unlockable characters, and collectible rewards. One thing you won’t find: microtransactions. Backyard Baseball is a fully modern game, but when it comes to rewards, we’re proudly old-school: earn them!

The all-new Backyard Baseball offers something for players of any age and ability. Tutorials, accessibility features, and simple modes like T-ball make it the perfect intro to both baseball and gaming, while competitive modes give experienced players the chance to bunt, steal, and grind their way to victory. Everyone is welcome in the Backyard.

Power-ups are back and crazier than ever, adding chaos and fun to every game. Pitchers can unleash FIRE BALLS, CRAZY BALLS, and FREEZEBALLS on unsuspecting hitters, while batters can wield CRAZY BUNTS, UNDERGROUNDERS, and the legendary ALUMINUM POWER BAT to rack up runs.

Backyard Baseball is iconic because we play the game a little differently than most. Follow these rules and let the fun begin!

SET YOUR LINE UP: Assign positions and a batting order. Choose wisely!
