  • MLB The Show 22 Jackie Robinson Day Celebration

    MLB The Show 22 Jackie Robinson Day Celebration

    Reading Time: 3 minutes

    Jackie Robinson was the first African American to play in Major League Baseball during the modern era. A true trailblazer in many areas including sports, media, and the civil rights movement. 

    Jackie stood for: class, the love of the game and of course, equality. He was a powerful force of positive change, that changed the landscape of sports and the world today. 

    MLB The Show 22 Jackie Robinson Day Celebration

    As has been tradition each season since 2004, MLB and the teams will celebrate the anniversary of Jackie Robinson’s historic MLB debut as he broke baseball’s color barrier throughout the league on April 15, 1947. For the 75th anniversary we wanted to make this year’s celebration extra special. In partnership with the Jackie Robinson Foundation, Sony Interactive Entertainment, The Players Association and Major League Baseball. 

    From April 15, 2022 through April 29 on US digital platform stores where MLB The Show is sold. You can purchase the Jackie Robinson Foundation Pack ($4.99 USD). PlayStation and San Diego Studio will donate 100% of the proceeds* from this pack after store platform fee deductions are applied to the Jackie Robinson Foundation. These donations will support the JRF/PlayStation-MLB The Show Scholars Program to help reduce the achievement gap in higher education. This is in addition to the $1 donation PlayStation and San Diego Studio will be making to the foundation for every collector’s edition sold of MLB The Show 22 in the US until December 31, 2022. Visit www.jackierobinson.org to learn more about the foundation.  

    Your purchase of the Jackie Robinson Foundation Pack grants you: 5,000 Stubs, the Jackie Robinson Foundation (JRF) bat skin, Jackie Robinson 75th Anniversary profile icon and a #42 profile icon for use in MLB The Show 22.”)

    Jackie Robinson played a pivotal role in societal change as a champion of racial equality and social justice. In turn the Jackie Robinson Foundation continues that legacy as one of the best scholarship and leadership development programs for students from underrepresented groups for the past 50 years. 

    We want to realize the power of education to generate economic wealth for communities of color and have more employees from underrepresented groups within Sony Interactive Entertainment. We couldn’t be happier to continue our partnership with the foundation and Jackie’s family as we strive to achieve these goals.

    In addition, anyone with MLB The Show 22 and an internet connection can play the Jackie Robinson Day Program. Earn a Diamond Legend player item for your Diamond Dynasty squad, along with a #42 bat skin, socks, and bat grip for your created Ballplayer. 

    *PlayStation will donate 100% of the proceeds (minimum of $3.49 USD per pack sold will be donated. See console’s online stores for details) to the Jackie Robinson Foundation after store platform fee deductions are applied.

    Additionally, make sure to check out the Competition Center, the home of all PlayStation competitive gaming content, and TheShow.com for more details on the game and tips to help you be the best in the Fall events. 

    Tournament Tips

    The best tip we have for this tournament is to make sure you practice on the hitting and pitching difficulty set for your tournament (Legend for Fall Circuit and Hall of Fame for Exhibition Tournaments). Here are a few more tips to help you on game day: 

    Diamonds in the Rough: Get a feel for all your favorite players and put the players you are most comfortable with in your tournament roster, not the players everyone else may be using. What works best for you might not be the same as everyone else, and could give you a unique advantage.

    Roster Strategy: Keep in mind you can change your tournament roster between games, and your pitchers’ stamina resets. If you feel like you need to rebuild your roster, as long as the new squad is tournament eligible, you can absolutely adjust your players around to get an edge.

    Friendlies: There are plenty of people trying to play friendly matches during the week to prepare for the tournaments. Join the MLB The Show Official Discord or the Battlefy Tournament Support Discord and find some friends to play practice games with.

    MLB The Show 21 presents Stunt on your Rivals with Coach and Fernando Tatis Jr.

    Reading Time: 3 minutes

    You’ve probably spent many restless nights awake wondering, “I wonder what Coach is doing right now…”.  Well, we’ve got news for you! 

    Not only is Coach back, but he has a new best friend: Fernando Tatis Jr. 

    Every Tuesday and Thursday for the remainder of February we will be releasing a new Coach and Fernando Tatis Jr. video that showcases a different area of the game. These fun videos will give you some important nuggets of information about various improvements for MLB The Show 21. These will lead you up to the more in-depth and future looking (next-Gen) reveals. So, for those in the community who are looking for a deeper dive on improvements and new features coming to MLB The Show this year have no fear, we have plenty of content on the horizon for you.

    MLB The Show 21 presents Stunt on your Rivals with Coach and Fernando Tatis Jr.

    Tailored and focused Gameplay

    The first video in Coach and Fernando’s series talks about tailored gameplay. New in MLB The Show 21 are gameplay styles that allow you to tailor the type of gameplay experience you are looking for at any given moment. Are you looking for a casual experience where you can put up some runs? Or are you looking for a more traditional experience that plays more intense and truer to life? Maybe you want a true test of your skills on the sticks, where your abilities with the controller are paramount. 

    Tailored gameplay is just the tip of the iceberg. The team has invested significant development time working on other areas of gameplay— our biggest focus being fly ball catches, at the wall catches, (jumping/reaching/rob home runs, crashing in to the wall, etc.), and catches that come off the z axis (which means if you are taking a route that’s not exactly perfect, we have a lot of new catches you’ll see play off the axis you’re running. It feels great and we cannot wait for everyone to try it out). For pitching, we’ve introduced a brand-new mechanic… but more about that and the other gameplay improvements in March.

    MLB The Show 21 Technical Test 

    Starting on February 23 and ending about a week later, a limited number of users* can participate in the MLB The Show 21 Technical Test. What is the Technical Test? We need your help to stress test: the servers, online match-making, cross-platform play, as well as gather feedback on gameplay. You can sign up here on February 10. The Technical Test will be closed, so we ask that you read rules before signing up and we will see you on the servers soon.

    MLB The Show 21 Feature Premieres

    This year we will be rolling out Feature Premieres, which will be broadcasting simultaneously across Twitch, YouTube and Facebook Live. Much like our livestreams in previous years, Feature Premieres will give an in-depth look at the new features and changes that we’ve been working on that makes this year’s game better than its predecessor.

    MLB The Show 21 präsentiert „Stunt on your Rivals“ mit dem Coach und Fernando Tatis Jr. (als Puppe)

    Reading Time: 3 minutes

    Wahrscheinlich habt ihr schon viele Nächte hellwach gelegen und euch gefragt: „Was der Coach wohl gerade macht …?“  Falls dem so ist, haben wir Neuigkeiten für euch!

    Der Coach kehrt nicht nur zurück, er hat auch einen neuen besten Freund: Fernando Tatis Jr.!

    An allen noch folgenden Dienstagen und Donnerstagen im Februar werden wir ein neues Video mit dem Coach und Fernando Tatis Jr. veröffentlichen, das jeweils einen anderen Bereich des Spiels beleuchtet. Diese lustigen Videos werden euch auch wichtige Details zu den verschiedenen Verbesserungen in MLB The Show 21 geben. Sie bereiten den Weg für zukünftige tiefere Einblicke und Enthüllungen zum Next-Gen-Debüt. Alle, die auf mehr Details zu den Verbesserungen und neuen Funktionen im diesjährigen MLB The Show brennen, können also unbesorgt sein: Wir haben jede Menge Content für euch geplant.

    MLB The Show 21 präsentiert „Stunt on your Rivals“ mit dem Coach und Fernando Tatis Jr. (als Puppe)

    Maßgeschneidertes und fokussiertes Gameplay

    Im ersten Video der Reihe mit dem Coach und Fernando geht es um maßgeschneidertes Gameplay. Eine Neuerung in MLB The Show 21 sind Gameplay-Stile, mit denen ihr das Gameplay-Erlebnis, das ihr euch wünscht, jederzeit anpassen könnt. Wollt ihr lockere Runden spielen, in denen ihr so richtig auf den Putz hauen könnt? Oder möchtet ihr traditioneller spielen, intensiver und mehr an die Realität angelehnt? Vielleicht möchtet ihr auch eure Fingerfertigkeit auf die Probe stellen und den Fokus auf die Fähigkeiten am Controller legen?

    Das maßgeschneiderte Gameplay ist nur die Spitze des Eisbergs. Das Team hat auch sehr viel Entwicklungszeit dafür aufgewendet, an anderen Gameplay-Bereichen zu arbeiten. Der größte Fokus lag dabei auf dem Fangen von Flugbällen, dem Fangen an Wänden (Sprünge, sich strecken, Homeruns stehlen, gegen Wände prallen usw.) sowie dem Fangen auf der z-Achse (D. h., wenn ihr nicht die Idealroute lauft, gibt es viele neue Fangarten, die auf der Achse basieren, auf der ihr lauft. Sie fühlen sich großartig an und wir können es kaum erwarten, dass ihr sie ausprobieren könnt.). Für das Pitching haben wir sogar eine brandneue Mechanik eingeführt … aber mehr dazu und zu den anderen Gameplay-Verbesserungen verraten wir euch im März.

    Technical Test für MLB The Show 21

    Ab dem 23. Februar werden wir etwa eine Woche lang einen Technical Test für MLB The Show 21 durchführen, an dem eine begrenzte Anzahl an Spielern* teilnehmen kann. Was ist der Technical Test? Wir brauchen eure Hilfe für Belastungstests (Server, Online-Spielersuche, plattformübergreifendes Spielen) und möchten auch Feedback zum Gameplay sammeln. Am 10. Februar könnt ihr euch hier anmelden. Der Technical Test wird nicht öffentlich zugänglich sein, bitte lest euch also die Regeln durch, bevor ihr euch anmeldet – dann sehen wir uns bald auf den Servern!

    Feature-Premieren zu MLB The Show 21

     

    Dieses Jahr werden wir Feature-Premieren veranstalten, die zeitgleich auf Twitch, YouTube und Facebook Live übertragen werden. Ähnlich wie unsere Livestreams in vergangenen Jahren, werden die Feature-Premieren tiefe Einblicke in neue Funktionen und Änderungen bieten, an denen wir gearbeitet haben, um den diesjährigen Teil besser als seinen Vorgänger zu machen. Falls ihr Nachteulen seid, könnt ihr ab 11. März jeweils in der Nacht von Donnerstag auf Freitag um Mitternacht zu unseren Feature-Premieren einschalten.

    Themen der Feature-Premieren

    • Maßgeschneidertes Gameplay, präzises Pitching und Aktualisierungen der Hitting-Engine
    • Alles rund ums Fielding (ja, insbesondere geht es um Spielzüge an den Wänden 😊)

  • Jackie Robinson graces the cover of MLB The Show 21 Collector’s Editions

    Jackie Robinson graces the cover of MLB The Show 21 Collector’s Editions

    Reading Time: 5 minutes

    In 1947, Jackie Robinson became the first player to break Baseball’s color barrier, which blocked players of color from entering Major League Baseball. A true historic trailblazer in sports, broadcasting, business, and the civil rights movement, Jackie was the first African-American to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962 following an illustrious professional baseball career in MLB and the Negro Leagues.

    Jackie stood for class, the love of the game and, of course, equality.  He was a powerful force of positive change, altering the landscape of sports and the world forever. Jackie stood for principles that are more relevant and important today than ever before. While Fernando’s cover celebrates the future of the game, we also wanted to pay respect to baseball’s history and its most powerful forces for positive change. We can think of no one who better represents that, both on and off the field, than Jackie Robinson.

    To celebrate Jackie, PlayStation and San Diego Studio are happy to announce that PlayStation will donate $1 to the Jackie Robinson Foundation (JRF) for every MLB The Show 21 Collector’s Edition sold in the US, including the Jackie Robinson Edition, the Jackie Robinson Deluxe Edition and the Digital Deluxe Edition from when pre-orders open through December 31.

    The donations will establish the JRF MLB The Show Scholars supported by PlayStation Pathways program. Scholars will receive four-year scholarships and extensive support services, including career guidance and internship placement.  It’s important for us to write more than just a check. The partnership with JRF will also include mentorship with PlayStation/SDS employees as well as an internship to get real world, on-the-job experience.  We couldn’t be more excited to launch this partnership with Jackie’s family and the Jackie Robinson Foundation. 

    The Jackie Robinson Foundation has been narrowing the achievement gap in higher education for 47 years. The JRF’s holistic approach measurably impacts the lives of young people destined to become impactful leaders. You can learn more about the Jackie Robinson Foundation here. For anyone interested in applying to be a JRF MLB The Show Scholar, stay tuned to the official PlayStation and MLB The Show channels in November 2021 for more information.

    The Jackie Robinson Foundation Scholars Program

  • Jackie Robinson ziert das Cover der MLB The Show 21 Collector’s Editions

    Jackie Robinson ziert das Cover der MLB The Show 21 Collector’s Editions

    Reading Time: 4 minutes

    Im Jahr 1947 war Jackie Robinson der erste Spieler, der die “Farbbarriere” von Baseball durchbrach, durch die Spieler mit bestimmter Hautfarbe daran gehindert wurden, in die Major League Baseball einzutreten. Jackie war ein historischer Vorreiter in den Bereichen Sport, Rundfunk, Wirtschaft und Bürgerrechte. Er war der erste Afroamerikaner, der 1962 nach einer professionellen Baseballkarriere in der MLB und den Negro Leagues in die Baseball Hall of Fame aufgenommen wurde.

    Jackie steht bis heute für Klasse, die Liebe zum Spiel und natürlich für Gleichberechtigung. Er war eine treibende Kraft des positiven Wandels und veränderte die Sportwelt für immer. Jackie stand für Prinzipien, die heute relevanter und wichtiger sind als jemals zuvor. Während Fernandos Cover die Zukunft des Spiels feiert, wollten wir auch die Geschichte des Baseballs respektieren und seine stärksten Kräfte für positive Veränderungen zeigen. Wir können uns niemanden vorstellen, der das auf und neben dem Feld besser repräsentieren könnte als Jackie Robinson.

    Fragt ihr euch jetzt:, “Was gibt es in den Editionen?”. Zunächst freuen wir uns zu erzählen, dass der Early Access für alle, die eine Jackie Robinson Collector’s Edition vorbestellen, verfügbar ist.  Early Access in MLB The Show 21 startet am 16.

    Legend Rickey Henderson Leads Diamond Bosses into MLB The Show 19

    Reading Time: 3 minutes

    A new free update is available for download starting today after 1pm PT in MLB The Show 19. Now you choose from three new 99 overall player rewards, including Legend Rickey Henderson. It’s also the first time that a Diamond Dynasty Program leads to three Signature Series players who are rated 99 overall! The hardest part of your journey may be picking which reward to keep at the end.

    New content has arrived weekly since launch in MLB The Show 19, and this Diamond Dynasty update comes at no additional cost once you own the game. Updates include:

    • New Program with Diamond choice packs, customized equipment and stadium sounds.
    • New Moments to relive some of the most storied baseball memories from the last century.
    • Rewards in single-player Conquest mode and in the multiplayer Ranked Seasons where you bring your best team to the field.

    3rd Inning Program Bosses

    Battle the new bosses in pressure-packed games, or play with them in fast-paced Moments. As you complete Program challenges and games, you will earn Program Stars to unlock a special choice pack that lets you keep one of three Bosses. Who will you choose?

    Signature Series Rickey Henderson (LF)

    Rickey Henderson is arguably baseball’s most dominant leadoff hitter of all time. Choose this Legend if you want an outfielder with top-end speed and dynamic hitting ability.

    Signature Series Roberto Alomar (2B)

    Do you need an infielder who excels on defense and also hit over .300? Then consider Roberto Alomar, who retired with 10 Gold Glove awards and four Silver Slugger awards, giving him an edge over Henderson in the defensive department.

    Signature Series Justin Verlander (SP)

    You may think pitching is the most important part of your team. Justin Verlander is not only a Cy Young award winner, but a former MVP. Choose the dominating righty with confidence and add his electric arm to your rotation.

    Earn Program Stars

    The 3rd Inning Program brings new Moments featuring major events in each Boss’s career as well as opportunities to battle against them in fantasy situations with your Diamond Dynasty team.

    Earn Program Stars by:

    • Playing games in Diamond Dynasty
    • Completing daily Missions
    • Completing all goals in the new 3rd Inning Conquest Map
    • Completing 3rd Inning Moments

There are more choice packs with Gold and Diamond players, custom equipment, bat flip animations, a unique ocean bat skin to equip to your Created Player or your Diamond Dynasty squad, and much more.
