by Thomas Jun 14,2025

In the latest update to *MLB Rivals*, Com2uS has stepped into the spotlight with a major collaboration that honors baseball's most iconic legends. This landmark update, developed in partnership with the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, introduces 17 legendary player cards and enriches the game with expert commentary from two celebrated voices in the sport.

Following the recent announcement of Philadelphia Phillies star Bryce Harper as the game’s newest cover athlete, this update builds on the momentum by bringing timeless icons into your lineup. Players can now unlock powerful Hall of Fame cards featuring baseball greats such as Derek Jeter, Greg Maddux, Jack Morris, and Tony Pérez. Each card comes with unique abilities, enhanced team compatibility, and a new Potential system that allows these legends to evolve further than standard Special Cards—opening up exciting possibilities for building cross-generational dream teams.

Add Six Hall of Famers to Your Squad During the Event

During the limited-time event period, players can log in and immediately add one of six legendary Hall of Famers to their roster: Derek Jeter, Greg Maddux, Tim Raines, Don Sutton, Tony Pérez, or Jack Morris. These cards are not only powerful but also highly flexible—you can assign them to different teams and positions, reflecting their real-life adaptability and giving you greater strategic control over your squad composition.

Enhanced Gameplay with Authentic Broadcast Commentary

Adding even more immersion to the experience, this update introduces full play-by-play audio from Joe Davis and color commentary from former MLB pitcher Orel Hershiser. Davis, known for his work with FOX Sports and the Los Angeles Dodgers, brings dynamic energy to every pitch and swing, while Hershiser provides insightful, in-game analysis that enhances the realism of each matchup. Together, they deliver a broadcast-quality feel that makes every moment on the field feel bigger and more authentic.
