The only baseball game in town for next-gen consoles is more realistic throughout, from players and stadiums to the inclusion of real-world news event. Importing your saved game from MLB 14 is a leap forward for all sports games, but the bad calls are hugely disappointing.

Import Last Year's Saves

MLB 15 The Show's best feature is the ability to import last year's saves into the Franchise, Season, and Road to the Show modes. Now. you can play until you take your rightful place in history.

Shadows

Using data from Google Earth, the sun's position (and resulting shadows) vary by stadium, time of day, and day of the year.

Stadium

The development team reviewed hundreds of hours of film to recreate realistic grass patterns and dirt colors.

Enhanced Batting Animations

Over 120 batting motions have been added to the game, so each player swings very much like how he does in real life.
