MLB The Show 24 Review: Play Your Way

Over the last few years, developer Sony San Deigo has built its MLB The Show series into the best sports franchise on the market. That's partially because of several bad choices from its competitors, but the developers have continued to introduce new ways to play, improving the baseball sim's overall product. That doesn't change with MLB The Show 24. Not only is gameplay among the best in the sports world, but SDS keeps the focus squarely on giving players plenty of ways to play.

Endless PossibilitiesInstead, SDS has focused on giving players more ways to have fun with the excellent gameplay they've built. One of the most discussed features is the inclusion of women in MLB The Show 24. EA Sports FC 24 was the first modern sports sim to do this, and The Show's inclusion is just as seamless. There's the option to make a female Road to the Show character, and Toni Stone's groundbreaking story is playable in the Storylines mode.

The team has also introduced a more modern storyline, though this one is less interesting. This storyline focuses on the early part of Derek Jeter's career. It's a fun mode to go through with some neat rewards, but Jeter's story isn't as exciting as digging back into baseball's deep catalog. Having Jeter involved might sell more copies, but most baseball fans already know about The Captain. I'd prefer to explore less discussed players and give them the spotlight.

Cause for Concern in Diamond DynastyOver in Diamond Dynasty, the biggest change is that seasons are now longer. That also means the team is splitting Team Affinity drops into three mini-seasons. The hope is that this will give players much more content to work through, but I can see it becoming an annoyance depending on how SDS handles things.
