For the mode in the upcoming MLB The Show 16 new features have been added to provide incentive for rosters to be put together with a wider variety of players. New this year is the ability to play against friends with Diamond Dynasty teams, ...

    The MLB The Show 16 stream earlier this week that focused on gameplay improvements was unable to cover everything of note, and a new one today went into detail on some other features that will be enjoyed in the game this year. That includes the much anticipated return of Sounds of the Show, which will allow for up to 6GB of MP3s to be added for use with walk-up and home run music, crowd chants and yells, and playing when in the menus.

    Just over a week ago a number of improvements and additions were detailed for Road to the Show mode in MLB The Show 16. Among them were gameplay perks and ShowTime, both of which weren't very warmly received as concerns have arisen about the mode getting too gimmicky.

MLB The Show 16 developers dove in deeper to RTTS with the fir...
