Yes. The rights to the OOTP series have been sold to EA Sports, which plans to keep Markus and the crew on staff, but the game will be completely redesigned and released as a combined arcade and statistical simulation called MLB Strike Zone 2015.

Thanks to EA, the game will now include an MLB and MiLB license with all real team names, logos, and player pictures included, 3D stadiums and full 3D animation with accurate player uniforms, and a new Legends Mode with 3D models and FaceGens of great players of the past.

Pre-orders will begin one month before opening day with a scheduled release date of April 1, 2015.
