MLB The Show has announced that this year's game, MLB The Show 24, will feature the franchise's first female player, the Negro Leagues' Toni Stone. MLB The Show's Negro Leagues Season 2 follows the feature's introduction in last year's title.
MLB The Show 23 introduced the Negro Leagues, a set of narrative journeys that allowed users to play through some of the biggest moments in the careers of various Negro League players and also learn about their personal histories through short videos. Last year's Negro Leagues included legendary players like Jackie Robinson, Satchel Paige, Buck O'Neil, and more. After completing a ballplayer's missions, users could unlock a 90 overall version of the player and add them to their Diamond Dynasty lineup. In the early days of each MLB The Show, 90 overall or higher cards are usually pretty hard to come by, so the Negro Leagues proved to be a popular feature for both its interesting history and its usefulness. It seems that MLB The Show 24 will continue this trend.
MLB The Show's Twitter account confirmed that MLB The Show 24's Negro Leagues will feature Toni Stone, who played second base professionally for two years. Stone was no slouch, as she hit .243 against some of the country's best African American pitchers during her career with the Indianapolis Clowns and Kansas City Monarchs. MLB.com's entry for Stone recounts that Hank Aaron called her a «very good baseball player» and legend Ernie Banks described her as «smooth» after watching her play for the first time. In fact, Aaron was the player that Stone replaced on the Clowns after he was signed by the Milwaukee Braves. She even recorded a hit off of Satchel Paige, who is widely regarded as the greatest pitcher to ever take the mound in the Negro Leagues.
Based on last year's Negro Leagues, it seems likely that players will be able to unlock a Diamond Dynasty card for Stone by completing her missions. The Vlad Guerrero Jr.-covered MLB The Show 24 will feature other Negro League legends like Hank Aaron, Josh Gibson, Buck Leonard, and all players from last year's Negro Leagues. Three more Negro League players will be added with a content drop in early April.
It's hoped that MLB The Show 24 will fully utilize the capabilities of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 by featuring improved graphics and more vibrant ballparks. While AAA titles in other genres have showcased the powers of current-gen consoles, many sports games have lagged behind in doing so.
Other expectations surrounding MLB The Show 24 include card set refinements in Diamond Dynasty, more legendary ballplayers added to Diamond Dynasty, and various gameplay improvements. MLB The Show 24 will launch on March 19 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Switch, Xbox

From Software president Hidetaka Miyazaki has acknowledged that members of the Dark Souls studio had misgivings about Elden Ring's shift to a full-blown open world format, while qualifying that Elden Ring's vision for an open world was never "traditional". Rather, Elden Ring is an "open world" game in the same way that Dark Souls is a "hard" game, Miyazaki feels. Confused? Well, this is the godfather of the notoriously unforthcoming Souls series we're talking about. I've never interviewed the guy, but I suspect he composes his responses using the game's soapstone messaging system.

Something that's come to define PS5 games throughout the console's lifespan is more choice with regards to visual and performance options. Where we used to simply have to put up with whatever resolution and frame rate a game had by default, nowadays, a lot of major titles will have at least two variations. It seems Stellar Blade will be no different, allowing players to decide how the game looks and runs using a trio of options.
Stellar Blade will feature three different display modes when it launches this April on PlayStation 5, members of the development team confirmed.
