The excitement during Playstation Experience 2015 continues to grow with the announcement of MLB 16: The Show for PS4 and PS3, continuing a game series that is known for consistent quality and innovation.

SCEA San Diego, developers of the upcoming game, continue this tradition with the ShowTime system. ShowTime will allow players to slow down time in a game’s most important moments. With this extra control, players have the ability to fine tune home runs, diving saves and base reactions to make them count more than ever.

The Show series is known for the “Road to the Show” career mode, letting players begin as rookies and work their way to a Hall of Fame standing. For the newest game, gameplay perks are now unlockable through the training system to hone your baseball finesse during your career. The Road to the Show mode has also been streamlined to allow players to continue from game to game without having to visit the main menu in-between; a paradigm has also been added to ensure players can maximize their time base-running and fielding.

Sneak peek at the MVP Edition of MLB 16: The Show

SCEA San Diego plans to release two special editions of the game: MVP Edition and Deluxe Digital Edition.

MLB 16: The Show MVP Edition ($69.99)

MLB 16: The Show Digital Deluxe Edition ($99.99)

Pre-orders for the PS4 regular and special editions of MLB 16: The Show are now available; for those that order early, there are plenty of pre-order benefits available once picking up or downloading the game: 10 bonus standard-item packs and a Player Rep Rookie Card. Gamestop offers additional benefits such as five bonus item packs. PS Store buyers will receive, in addition to the previously mentioned awards (excluding Gamestop’s), three exclusive MLB themed avatars.

For fans of baseball, it comes as no surprise to see Blue Jays’ Josh Donaldson as the 2016 Cover Athlete. As the winner of the 2015 American League MVP, Josh is no stranger to success this year. He is the recipient of the MLB Player Association’s Player of the Year award as well as the AL Outstanding Player award for 2015; as if that weren’t enough, Josh currently holds the record for the largest amount of votes for an All Star Game performance.

MLB 16: The Show will be released on March 29, 2016 for PS4 and PS3.
