Review of MLB The Show 16

There are always few surprises with MLB The Show. Consumers can trust they’re going to get terrific gameplay and visuals with consistent offline modes and commentary that have arguably started to fall behind the times.

Last year though Diamond Dynasty rose up to become a favorite of many and even pulled off an upset win for the Community Award of Best Team-Building Mode. That coincided with the first satisfactory online experience in series’ history. Diamond Dynasty received the most upgrades in MLB The Show 16 and the new Battle Royale way to play is sure to become a big hit.

MLB The Show 16 is a great game, but that’s more due to the series already having been great, than necessarily what has been done with it this year. Strengths have been reinforced but deficiencies mostly unaddressed. Check out the full review over at Sporting News!
