Hitoki Iwase, the closer who played exclusively for the Chunichi Dragons from his professional debut until retirement, has become a Reincarnated Player.
He holds incredible records of 1,002 total games pitched and 400 saves.
His sharp slider remains a memorable staple in the Power Pros game series.
Also joining is Masayuki Kakefu, affectionately known as Mr. Tigers.
His three consecutive back-screen home runs remain one of the most iconic scenes in Japanese baseball history.
Adding him to your team will surely boost your offensive power.
The lineup also features an illustrious list of names, including Kazuhisa Inao, dubbed the Iron Arm, and Isao Harimoto, the only player in Japanese professional baseball to achieve 3,000 hits and a figure known for his signature Katsu! catchphrase.
Along with Hiroki Kuroda and Hideki Matsui, they are here to help your baseball club.
The "Welcome! Reincarnated Players" in-game event runs from 12:00 PM on Monday, January 22, 2024, to 9:59 AM on Wednesday, January 31, 2024.
