As the 2025 season kicks off, American baseball fans can look forward to a refreshing break from winter with the launch of a new free update for Konami's premier baseball simulation game, eBaseball: MLB Pro Spirit, set to debut on March 25th. This update not only marks the beginning of the season but also introduces exciting new features and events to enhance the gaming experience.

The update brings a fresh key visual featuring the series mascot, Shohei Ohtani, and introduces two new top-tier Partner Athletes: Adley Rutschman from the Baltimore Orioles and Jackson Merrill from the San Diego Padres. These athletes will bring their exceptional skills to the virtual diamond, enriching the gameplay with their real-life prowess.

In addition to the new players, the update includes three thrilling in-game events. The Japan Legends event will spotlight Japanese MLB legends such as Ichiro Suzuki and Hideki Matsui, available for a limited time. The Spring Fever 10-players Free event offers fans a chance to acquire a player from their favorite team through a one-time special free 10-pull Scout, guaranteeing one Grade IV player.

Beyond the diamond, the Tokyo Series Present event allows players to obtain a Grade III Cover Athlete: Shohei Ohtani (DH). With these updates, Konami continues to strengthen its position in the sports gaming market, alongside its successful eFootball series, through top-tier partnerships and engaging content.
