MLB 14 The Show Available As Day 1 Digital Download Available to Download Now (PS4)

04:28 PM - May 5, 2014 by Steve_OS

MLB 14 The Show will be available as a Day 1 digital download at 12:01 AM EST on May 6th. (SEE UPDATES BELOW) Similar to how users were able to download the PS3 version, expect it to be available at that time, give or take a few minutes.

It doesn't appear as though you will be able to pre-download, as some hoped with the latest PlayStation update. VG24/7 noted Watch Dogs will be the first game available for pre-download, releasing on May 27th.

UPDATE: As of 10:30 AM EST, the game is still not available to download.

UPDATE #2: Due to unforeseen technical issues, MLB 14 The Show for PS4 is not currently available for download via the PlayStation Store. All parties are working as quickly as possible to remedy the issue. We�ll update this post as soon as a resolution is reached. Thank you for your continued patience.

UPDATE #3: Based off of the many responses, the download should be available for everyone now.

Just watched this episode while I waited.

Seemed fitting.

clearly you're overestimating your abilities. Not really interested enough to worry about it too much. Please continue.

I'm not going to bed until PSN resolves this issue. So I'm going to start a twitch live stream Q&A session if you guys want to pass the time away.

I just got my wisdom teeth out....and I have work off tomorrow...this was supposed to take the pain away

! such sadness....and I still have to wait for the actual game to DOWNLOAD...not to mention I'm sure i will need to update it the minute it actually downloads. *sigh*

# 727 Proff56 @ 05/06/14 04:42 AM

so if I leave my PS4 in standby mode it should download once available

Exactly man this is definitely a bummer. I'm not about to start calling myself a causal gamer of the show now though! Every year i take off work for two days and literally play this game for 24 hours on launch day, and I didn't do that for the PS3 version this year because I can really only get away with doing it once a year, I mean it's not exactly a healthy habit, just tradition

This is putting a serious dent into my 24 hour playtime, hope it's out before 6 to download at least...

I'm sure you know that for a fact. I'm just wondering how many times some of you let this stuff slide by when you could have gotten something out of it, that's what I am curious of.

As a customer, you have the right to complain if something is done incorrectly or not as promised. Any time I am unsatisfied, I make it known. Only in circumstances where I feel it is completely necessary, of course. I feel as though this is one of those times. I can't tell you how many times I get money refunded to me just by calling and expressing my concerns with something. I guess some of you don't choose to do so, and that is your choice.

Perhaps you clearly underestimate your abilities as a consumer.

is anybody privy to any information regarding this release in Europe?

# 733 jestep123 @ 05/06/14 04:46 AM

For anyone ,making excuses, telling people they aren't going to "die", "the world isn't going to end", first of all, you do realize that you are fighting fire with gasoline there right, You are trying to get people to stop overreacting by using hyperbole yourself. I am a little discouraged at the number of apologetic posts here. Now I realize that back in the old days,,,,like 2 whole years ago, this would not have been an option, and we are fortunate to have it. However, now that this kind of option has been made available, it needs to work correctly. Especially since it is the wave of the future, at least according to Sony. This is what they want. Did you read that we may never see another console?

The point I am driving at is that this is a disaster, in the context of gaming. In the grand scheme of life, it is a minor annoyance and I am sure anyone out there expressing frustration will tell you that. We all paid, or want to pay 60 dollars here and we cant. I for one am going to have some serious issues going digital on release day again. From a customer perspective, you have every right to be upset if your expectations are not met, and those apologizing for it. good on you but you are wrong to be so condescending to customers who paid their money and expect their product. From a business perspective, to have this happen during the digital relase of your flagship annual franchise, that is really bad and no amount of fast talk is going to get around that.

Think of it this way, if you preordered this game, I can guarantee you that Sony has already made money off of your money and what do you have to show for it?

You still failed to answer my question.

I am not really looking to get something for nothing. If you think you are getting the game for free now, more power to you.

Negative. You would need to start the download somehow.

I get the feeling its a deeper issue than that. No excuse, but I sense there's an infrastructure issuing that we're not hearing about. Whether its' a provisioning issue or something else. Being it's the middle of the night, it may have taken some time to get the right engineers up and rolling.

Nothing more than an educated guess, but I sense there's a deeper issue here than simply not enabling the download or publishing a DL button.

# 737 Bacong @ 05/06/14 04:49 AM

Ramone just said on twitch that the only thing he knows is that the game file was so big they're having problems getting it uploaded to the servers.

# 738 Og_legendary @ 05/06/14 04:49 AM

i stopped refreshing awhile ago,

Exactly, more power to me. I've done it before, not sure why it wouldn't be possible now. However, as I said in my other post, I don't even wish to get the game for free. That only hurts SCEA in the long run. But I will get something for this, I can guarantee that.

Also, I love how you want to make a mockery of the conversation when this is actually a serious issue worth debating. I'm glad we were able to be a source of entertainment for the thread together, it was a joy.

I also have a right not to complain.
