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.

I really dont need a refund, i just wanted to go digital so put the money on my account. So i will wait, im okay waiting. I gotta go to work, and then a quick download then some show goodness.

Everyone in this thread relax, it will be okay. We all will be gaming soon.

Good luck all

Yup they wanted them pre orders they know what the end of the day will wait to play so they knew about it and they never said anything that's what's frustrating

This has been one pathetic experience. I will never buy digital on my consoles again, Steam has never been this bad. Absolutely unacceptable it still is not ready.

# 1024 rammstein @ 05/06/14 10:39 AM

Funny how ps4 and xbox1 never had hold ups delays or need updates to take our money lol

You know the old saying..."fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me". Thats about how I feel about the PSN store today!

# 1027 rammstein @ 05/06/14 10:40 AM

I want my game on top of that a free one as well

Unnecessary post.

Yea, but there was no indication that The Show would be a game available for pre-loading. We all hoped it was, but that's our assumptions & hopes.

And the game was available for pre-order before the date for the 1.70 firmware was even announced.

We're all frustrated, but this was....I don't even know.

Waited over a half hour for a live chat with support just to get this:

Status: Canceled There are no agents available to chat with you right now. Please try again later.

Awesome.

# 1032 chitown1-23 @ 05/06/14 10:47 AM

I read that watch dogs will be the first game you can pre download

Live Chat with Sony is borderline useless.

I've always had better success w/ calling them.

You guys act like you have never seen a technical issue before. Ever heard of GTA online? Much worse than this.

The offline mode was still playable.

I'm not upset over technical issues. I'm upset over lack of communication from Sony. You have customers with their money in your hand. I'm patient and cool with waiting –*but I'd at least like to know when I can expect things to get better.

I told them no chance, been a PS user for 18 years and this is completely unacceptable. Got a confirmation number from them, went to WalMart, got a hard copy.

Should have waited.

Anyone having any luck here in the United States? I went and picked up a hard copy. Currently downloading at 55%. Opening video is awesome. Im waiting in queue to get my money refunded through PSN. If you advertise a 12:01am EST download time and after 12 hours you're still not getting anything. They should feel stupid. FAIL. Happy gaming friends

Let's keep calm a little bit. They are two completely separate things. It's like blaming the TV division for this too. Yes, they are owned by Sony; however, they have no control over the department that handles PSN nor does that department have control over the San Diego studio.

Ramone has stated earlier that it is not on their end. There is no reason not to believe him as he has never lied to us before or a reason to start. It's really just poor planning and marketing. It happens in every business.

Does it suck... yes. Should you be upset... you have every right to be. If it the fault of every single employee of Sony, especially the game developer... not at all.

I get it, i really do. If I had ordered digitally I'd be pretty annoyed, but I wouldn't expect Sony to do anything to compensate me. I believe they will have the game available today as promised, but I understand why people feel the way they do.
