EA Sports executive: 'MVP Baseball' video game could return one day

EA Sports hasn't ruled out bringing back "MVP Baseball."

The popular baseball video game series was cancelled in 2005 after Take-Two Interactive, owner of 2K Games, struck a deal with the Major League Baseball Players Association for exclusive rights among third-party publishers. But EA Sports executive vice president Cam Weber says there's been talk of possibly resurrecting the series.

"I would love to have a baseball game in our portfolio," Weber told IGN's Joseph Knoop. "It's something that once again, every couple years, we take a look and we talk about and theorize about what it might look like to get back into something like baseball."

Weber's comments are in line with what EA CEO Andrew Wilson told Polygon in 2013, though Wilson acknowledged in that interview that the company had a lot on its plate with its other sports video games.
