MLB The Show 18 is shaping up to be a big year for Sony’s yearly baseball game. The game will feature a revamped Road to the Show mode, a “major gameplay engine tune up,” and a new player tagging system. The game itself looks quite impressive, and there are over 1,000 new gameplay animations that’ll be in the March 27, 2018 release. Now Sony has detailed another feature, the game’s retro mode, which was a key selling point for last year’s game.
Check out the new MLB The Show 18 retro mode trailer below:
