MLB The Show 19 is a baseball video game developed by SIE San Diego Studio , published by Sony Interactive Entertainment , and based on Major League Baseball (MLB). It is the fourteenth part of the computer game series MLB: The Show and was released for PlayStation 4 on March 26, 2019. Bryce Harper, Philadelphia Phillies outfielder , was featured as the cover star for the US version. Those who registered were allowed to play a closed alpha, which ran from December 13, 2018 to December 19, 2018.

The successor to the game is MLB The Show 20 .

development

On November 2, 2018, it was announced that Bryce Harper would appear on the cover of the 2019 edition of the game. However, since he was a free agent at the time , he was shown in a white hoodie in the placeholder image. On February 28, 2019, after Harper signed with the Phillies, the official cover design was released.

The new features include the game modes "Moments" and "March to October". With "Moments" the user can relive and recreate famous moments in MLB history. This mode can be played offline as part of the "Diamond Dynasty" or separately and is rewarded with cards and stubs, the game's virtual currency. Compared to its predecessor, the game also offers improved defense controls with improved mechanics and more realistic animations. The pitchers are divided into three categories: "Plain Filthy" (good ball movement), "Flamethrower" (fast and hard pitches) and "Control Freak" (precise throws), while the batter is divided into five categories: "Pure Power" ( Power-Hitter), "Small Ball" (brings the ball into play), "Mr. Utility" (good situation player), "Rock Steady" (solid in all areas) and "The Anomaly" (power hitter with great speed) .

Recurring popular game modes are "Franchise Mode" (in which the player can take control of any MLB team over the course of several seasons) and "Road to the Show" (in which the user creates a new player and continues his career Double-A, Triple-A and the majors plays).
