MLB 15 The Show News Post


More MLB 15 The Show details have been revealed by Target. They also have a special pre-order price of $39.99 for PlayStation 4 gamers, but many are getting errors when trying to get it at that price, (thanks for the heads up Gleebo)!

Some of the new details that have been revealed on their product page include a new New Human IK Engine, new Tag System, revamped commentary, overhauled Franchise mode and more.

For the first time, partnerships with real-world equipment brands will bring MLB-accurate bats, gloves, shoes, and batting gloves to the game. Customize your Road to The Show player in the best gear from the sport’s best brands.

It’s not just the gear that’s more authentic this year. Players and teams also have more unique personalities and styles plus a wide array of emotional reactions to all the heartbreak and triumph on the field.

And that field will be more action-packed with new animations, a new tag system, and completely new Human IK engine. In 2015, playing the field will be as exciting as stepping up to the plate.

MLB 15 The Show also features major graphical improvements. Enhanced stadium lighting, Improved gloss and specular, resulting in more natural lighting on players. Seasonal day/night transitions have also been added into the world of The Show.

And the improvements aren’t all animations and graphics. The game itself has gotten deeper with more ways to play, earn rewards, and put together a Hall of Fame career.

Best of all, Universal rewards will mean that all of that gameplay earns Stubs that can be spent on licensed equipment, Road to The Show improvements, and virtual baseball cards. We’re introducing 30 Iconic MLB Alumni into our virtual player card pool, 1 representative for each team. These players span every historic baseball era of the last 70 years. Like all of our Universal Rewards, you have a chance of finding a historic virtual player card to add to your collection and utilize throughout MLB 15 The Show.

Make yourself a legend and never start your career or season over again. With Year-to-Year saves, users will be able to continue their Road to The Show players and Franchises from MLB 14 The Show into MLB 15 The show, and into future releases.“

All of that is only scratching the surface of how MLB 15 The Show is ready to prove that Baseball Is Better. Revamped commentary, improved load times, and an overhauled franchise mode are also on-deck to help make the 10th edition of The Show the best one yet.

Well that is true.

Lol! If target didn't mention it, it doesn't exist reminds me of this... "if it's not in our archives, it does not exist." I'll give someone a free copy of the show if they tell me what movie that's from! And I'm pumped about revamped commentary!

Here's a demo. The real strength of Human IK seems to be more realistic body structure (the way joints, bones, muscles move in tandem) and collision mapping.

I'm pretty sure Ramone said this game will have the most gameplay improvements in the history of the game.

Lost for words, that's just incredible.

I'm very intrigued by the Human IK Engine. The animations in the trailer looked the same as they have the last several years, so I'm interested to see where we'll see the effects of this engine.

This Human IK stuff looks incredible. I mean if we get even half of what is demonstrated in that video, it would still be a HUGE step forward for fielders and baserunners.

If your career info saves year to year do you have the option to continue with updated rosters?

I wonder how they will handle it.
 
# 34 TattooedEvil @ 12/28/14 03:33 AM
I think we are gonna get "owner mode" back and have a on/off option...It has to make a comeback with all the hardcore baseball guys there are. Which also makes me wonder if there is gonna be some type of renovate ur park or build a new stadium type of thing. It is just wanted by so many people I think it could find its way in the game

Can't wait.

I don't see anyway to incorporate that. I guesstimate whatever you carry over
from 14 will be what you get for 15.

Nice!

This will be great in the show no doubt but I gotta say, Madden could use this technology more than any game out there.

Sounds good so far, excited to hear more.
 
# 39 Lovesports @ 12/28/14 01:36 PM
Deep year to year Stat and award tracking is really all I want

I'm excited to "hear" more, as in the commentary!
