New to MLB the Show 24
Welcome to MLB the Show 24! Here are all the new and updated features in this year’s latest addition.
Road to the Show
Female Player
This year in Road to the Show, be the first female player in MLB history! Along with Mia Lewis— your best friend, confidante, and fiercest rival on the field—you’ll take on the Draft Combine together, then race one another down the Road to the Show.
Emergent Narrative
Set your path in Road to the Show with Emergent Narratives! With more specific and more meaningful dialogue options than ever before, connect with your coach, agents, and friends inside the clubhouse, on the field, and on the road!
Combine
Back by popular demand to MLB the Show 24, play the Combine’s three mini games to test your skills in your chosen position. Your performance determines where you go in the draft, so do your best to pump your draft stock up!
Storylines
The Lore of the Game
MLB the Show 24 brings you brand-new Storylines that relive some of baseball’s most iconic moments. Experience Derek Jeter's historic career or play through the new chapters in Season 2 of our returning Storyline, the Negro Leagues—now narrated by Bob Kendrick, President of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum!
Diamond Dynasty
New Seasons Design
Each season in Diamond Dynasty is an opportunity to begin anew and refresh your lineup. Building from your base of always-playable Core cards, you’ll supplement your squad with powerful Season-specific cards. Don’t worry if you’ve still got multiple gaps to fill—this year, you can use multiple Wild Card players from past Seasons in your lineup at the same time!
Cornerstone Cards
Your Season’s journey begins by opening the Season Starter Pack and choosing your very own Cornerstone Card. As their name indicates, Cornerstone Cards are the kind of player you can build a World Series team around! Cornerstone Cards are powerful and based on some of the greatest Legends in MLB history.
Multiple Wild Cards
Yes, the rumors are true. If you like your Season 1 Cornerstone Card, you can keep it in your lineup. This year, for the very first time, you can run multiple Wild Cards in your Season lineup. There are multiple ways to earn more slots, giving your poor opponents a double, triple, or mega-dose of nostalgia while you beat them!
MLB Rule Changes
Pitch Clock
To match MLB’s new rules, MLB the Show 24 now includes a Pitch Clock.
Enabled by default, the Pitch Clock feature starts with 20 seconds with runners on base or 15 seconds
with bases empty.
If there are three consecutive Pitch Clock violations, the game
automatically switches to an idle scene to prevent further violations; begin again by inputting any
button press with your controller. Alternatively, if you prefer the way things used to be, you can
disable this feature for offline modes in the Settings under “AI Gameplay” > “Pitch Clock.”
