MLB Rivals partners with Baseball Hall of Fame to feature game legends

In a major move for baseball fans and mobile gamers alike, MLB Rivals has launched one of its most exciting updates yet. Building on the recent addition of Philadelphia Phillies slugger Bryce Harper as the game’s cover athlete, Com2uS has now teamed up with the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum to introduce 17 legendary player cards—bringing iconic names and unforgettable talent directly into your squad.

This update adds powerhouse Hall of Famers such as Derek Jeter, Greg Maddux, Jack Morris, and Tony Pérez, each featured as elite player cards with unique abilities, team synergy options, and an all-new Potential system. These Hall of Fame Player Cards surpass regular Special Cards in growth potential, allowing players to craft dynamic lineups that span generations of baseball greatness.

Add Six Legendary Players During the Event

During the limited-time event period, players can log in and immediately add one of six select Hall of Famers to their roster—Derek Jeter, Greg Maddux, Tim Raines, Don Sutton, Tony Pérez, or Jack Morris. The best part? These cards aren’t restricted by position or team, reflecting each player's real-life adaptability and giving you more strategic freedom when building your dream squad.

Immersive Commentary from Broadcast Legends

Enhancing the in-game experience, this update also introduces full play-by-play narration from Joe Davis and expert colour commentary from former MLB pitcher Orel Hershiser.
