Major League Baseball Releases Its Own Video Game
It may be an unusual step for Major League Baseball but they’re hoping to hit a homerun in the video game business. MLB has now come out with its own video game, a first for a major professional sports league. For years, the between the pro-sports leagues and video game developers has been simple. Leagues and players’ unions license developers to use real athletes, teams, and stadiums in their products. With blockbuster like EA’s Madden NFL series, this has been a very lucrative relationship. But Major League Baseball is breaking that trend by developing its own video game in-house. The other guys license out their trademarks. They haven’t done anything like this where they’re actually designing the tech. Major League Baseball’s Advanced Media Division has developed R.B.I. Baseball 14, a reboot of a classic 1980s Nintendo game. It’ll be on most of the major consoles and mobile operating systems. Which begs the question. Just why is MLB AM developing this game on its own? Rather than take the sure thing of a license fee, take a little bit, little bit more risk, certainly on the downside where we spend money to build the game, and then have all the upside too, in terms of whether it turns out to be a great game and however it evolves, we have the upside. MLB AM is a unique entity in the world of sports. In addition to developing video games, it provides live streaming of baseball games and back-end online video support for companies like WWE and ESPN.
