Back in 1991, the year 2020 seemed light years away. At least if you take our futuristic visions as gospel. It was back then in which SNK released Super Baseball 2020, a game that depicted exactly what baseball would be like 30 years into the future. But now, as we finally approach that future year, Super Baseball is back… faithfully recreated on Xbox One.
But unless some massive changes hit the sport in the next couple of years, those 1991 predictions are going to be way off!
Available right now on Xbox One, ACA NEOGEO Super Baseball 2020 comes with the usual Neo £6.39 price. Set in the near future, Baseball 2020 will see you able to hit up two leagues, each with six teams involved. It’ll then be up to you to partake in the beautiful game of baseball with a twist. Landmines will be in place and armor will need to be purchased in order to see your team able to make it through a single match.
With the now standard ACA NEOGEO additions that allow us to amend game difficulty and compete with others via the worldwide leaderboards, if you’re after a baseball game – albeit one that isn’t particularly faithful to the real world sport – then Super Baseball 2020 is it.
Head on over to the Xbox Games Store and nab yourself a download right now.
Game Description:
SUPER BASEBALL 2020 is a baseball game released by SNK in 1991. In the near future, there are two leagues with 6 teams each. Players pick their team, and compete for the championship.

Players can change various game settings such as game difficulty, and also reproduce the atmosphere of arcade display settings at that time. Players can also compete against each other from all over the world with their high scores. Please enjoy the masterpiece that built a generation for video games.
