This year’s ‘MLB The Show’ video game offers more of the same

This week, San Diego Studios released this year’s edition of the always anticipated game MLB The Show.

MLB The Show 24 is a typical sports game, like Madden or NBA2K, but it focuses on baseball. As in previous years, the two biggest game modes are Diamond Dynasty and Road to the Show.

In Diamond Dynasty, players have to build their team based on cards that they can pull in packs, buy off of the marketplace, or play the game to earn the cards. With the team that is built, players can face off against others or against the computer to gain more rewards. 

Road to the Show is a hit because users can make a custom player and play their career. The mode has not been changed for many years, but for MLB The Show 24, users can now make their custom player a female. 

There are also modes called Franchise and March to October, but they are not as big as other game modes. In Franchise, players are the general manager of a team and can trade and draft players. In March to October, users control a team for a few innings a game and try to get them to the World Series.

There are also different storylines that players can follow. Users can recreate moments from Derek Jeter’s career to earn different cards that they can use for their Diamond Dynasty team. There are also different Negro League storylines that players can follow to earn cards from players like Josh Gibson.

Overall, the game is not much different than previous years, but it is always a fun play for fans of sports and sports video games.
