  • Launched in 2023 during the MLB All-Star Celebrity Softball Game presented by Corona, the virtual ballpark’s game lineup and select regular season match-ups now include new features:
    • Streaming and Gameday 3D - A 3D representation of the game, powered by MLB’s Gameday 3D product, synced with the live game broadcast for a smooth streaming experience.
    • Voice parties - Fans can interact in real-time using chat and spatial audio features. This year, fans can create small group parties to invite friends and chat in real time.
    • Virtual shop - actions within the virtual ballpark earn users points that can be redeemed for specialty jerseys at the digital merch store.

Upcoming games

  • Wednesday, September 4th , 6:50 p.m. (ET) – Twins @ Rays
  • Wednesday, September 11th , 7:45 p.m. (ET) – Reds @ Cardinals
  • Wednesday, September 18th , 6:35 p.m. (ET) – Giants @ Orioles
  • Wednesday, September 25th , 6:40 p.m. (ET) – Rays @ Tigers

Herman Narula, CEO of Improbable, declared: “This new season of the partnership between MLB and Improbable demonstrates the role that virtual and immersive environments will play in the evolution of sports rights: they revolutionize the fan experience in a world where less than 1% of a team’s fans have the opportunity to attend a live match in the stadium. Our worlds offer a different, more social, immersive, gamified, and interactive experience. With Web3 and sports prioritizing community and engagement, fans can now participate directly in their favorite sports by owning digital assets representing moments, memorabilia, or even team stakes. This deepens the connection between leagues and their audiences by offering transparency, security, and new ways to engage, also allowing leagues and clubs to reach a different, younger audience that wants to follow their sport in a new way.

Unleash Raises $35M Led by One Peak to Help Enterprises Ship AI-driven Software Faster, Safer, and Smarter4.3.2026 15:00:00 CET | Press release

AI has dramatically accelerated software development, creating a generational opportunity for anyone in an enterprise to turn ideas, prompts, and prototypes into applications. But AI has also outpaced the systems designed to control software delivery. DORA research shows that a 25% rise in AI adoption correlates with a 7% drop in software stability. Enterprises are shipping code 2-3x faster with AI, yet outages caused by uncontrolled feature rollouts and missing kill switches are costing businesses millions in lost revenue, prolonged customer downtime, and brand damage.
