The Bigs 2 is an arcade-oriented baseball game. The standard gameplay on the field is mainly the same as in its predecessor: the player takes the role of the active player, e.g. the batter, and tries to make a successful move. During gameplay, there are mini games which, when beaten, give the player an edge. Successful actions fill up a power meter and when it is full, the player can unleash powerful abilities.
The Bigs 2 also introduces new features such as the wheelhouse indicator (shows the high risk zones of each batter), which rewards a big hit to his overall effectiveness. Another addition is the Big Slam ability, where four consecutive batters come up and when all four are successful, there is a home run.
The gameplay involves playing single matches, Home Run Pinball or a full season, as well as the Become A Legend career mode. In this mode, the player takes on the role of an injured athlete who works their way back to the MLB. To succeed in the game, the player must meet certain requirements during matches, which can be achieved by winning mini games or improving statistical skills.
The Wii version of THE BIGS 2 adds motion controls, mostly affecting the mini game controls.
The Bigs 2 was released on 28 August 2009 for the Wii console.
