Out of the Park Baseball 23 is now 50% off! See what everyone is talking about today and experience it for yourself !

Hello everyone! This is to let you know that starting soon, Out of the Park Baseball 22 (and all previous editions of Out of the Park Baseball) will no longer be available for purchase. We have made this difficult decision because the back-end provider of our live services will no longer support us, so we are not able to continue offering them for sale for new users.

If you have already purchased OOTP 22 (and/or previous versions of OOTP) then you will be able to continue to download them via your Steam library. This will only impact new purchases.

Thank you for your support!

Hello, OOTP fans!

The updated Korean beta version is ready with improved Korean translation. However, as this is a lengthy process, we will continue to improve the quality of localization over the next few weeks. Please be patient!

There was some misunderstanding regarding the release on April 23rd. We were planning to release an incomplete public beta version internally, but due to a communication error, it was incorrectly announced that the final Korean version was released in the trailer.

If you are in the Korean version of the public beta group on Steam, the Steam version of the new beta build will be automatically updated.

Please report bugs in the following subforum and make sure to include screenshots or a detailed description of the problem if possible: Korean bug reporting forum

We have tested this build for 24 hours and did not find any issues, however use this at your own risk! Please back up important league files before loading them in this beta.

How to access the beta on Steam:

It's a massive new set of Perfect Team cards and missions this week! The Build-A-Legend Diamond mission rewards are here, along with a killer new Limited Edition card for slugger Juan Gonzalez, and - for the first time ever - the all-new Perfect Team Scavenger Hunt!

Dear Korean baseball fans,

Today we start a new chapter in the history of Out of the Park Baseball. A team of engineers and translators have worked hard for several months to localize the game for the Korean market, and today we will be releasing a public beta which features a setting in the Game Settings Dialog to play the game in Korean language. The purpose of this beta version is to gather feedback and bug reports from our Korean fans so that we can finalize the localization within the next few weeks. Please keep in mind that the translation is not complete yet, so you will see untranslated text in a few spots, for example some player or team names.

In what has become a beloved tradition, we celebrate Jackie Robinson Day with the unveiling of the Negro League Stars collection.

There are no words to accurately describe the star power of this incredible set. These players are staggeringly good in every possible dimension. The incredible pitching of Satchel Paige, the dominant speed of Cool Papa Bell, the unprecedented power of Josh Gibson, and - of course - the all-around sublime skills of the incomparable Jackie Robinson highlight a massive 75-card set that is one of the best history lessons a person can get.
