When it comes to capturing the essence of a sport, few sports video games have done as good of a job asMLB The Show. To be more specific,MLB The Show 16 and Pro Evolution Soccer 17 had the most realistic gameplay in the genre.
If the gameplay additions we learned about in Sony's latest trailer are as advertised, MLB The Show 17will be even more realistic than its predecessor. Here's a look at the trailer:
More authentic paths for the ball off the bat is the first thing that caught my attention in the trailer. Per Community Manager and Game Designer Ramone Russell, previous versions of The Show modeled a ball caroming off a wall as opposed to a baseball bat.
This year's version will use a bat and ball, and the trailer promises "hundreds of thousands" of new possibilities.
It's easy to understate what this could mean for gameplay. More realistic slices and curves could create more dramatic home runs, diving catches and hits down the first and third-base lines. If you're a real baseball fan, that concept will excite you.
