Gameplay updates

From ’22 to ’23, the San Diego Studio Gameplay Development Team continues striving to reach all types of players.

  • High fielding attribute matters more now than ever before. The disparity between players in-game with high vs. low fielding attributes is more noticeable. Players with a lower Fielding attribute will react slower and have worse jumps to contact made off the bat compared to players with a high Fielding attribute.
  • When it comes to our throwing interfaces, we have a couple to select from depending on player skill and engagement level. Our more player-friendly interfaces, Buttons and Analog, rely heavily on the Arm Accuracy attribute, which has been tuned to be in line with MLB statistics. Elevate your game with the Button Accuracy Meter, where you are in complete control of your throws.
  • The pitcher-batter dynamic is better than ever with the revamped competitive gameplay engine. And don’t worry, Casual or Simulation fans, we have also tuned and balanced those gameplay styles as well.  
  • We’ve added over 5,000 gameplay animations to MLB  The Show 23. We have hundreds of new animations ranging from: rob foul ball, dives, hot shot variety at the corners, and as always, animations for urgency and efficiency.

We could not be happier to finally introduce the Negro Leagues into MLB The Show. It’s a special project for San Diego Studio, and we are so grateful and appreciative to be partnering with the families of the players, the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, and NLBM President Bob Kendrick to bring these stories to life in a video game.

With this multiyear partnership with the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, our goals align with the museums to educate, enlighten, and inspire by celebrating the rich history of the Negro Leagues.
