MLB The Show 18 is Having Some Box Art Issues

While development has gone smoothly for MLB The Show 18, it can’t be said that there haven’t been issues. In fact, it’s been very difficult to come up with a box art for the game. Sony just released a hilarious new commercial for the game that spoofs their marketing department. It’s a good laugh at Sony’s yearly baseball game, which will feature a revamped Road to the Show mode, a “major gameplay engine tune up,” and a new player tagging system. The game itself looks quite impressive, and there are over 1,000 new gameplay animations that’ll be in the March 27, 2018 release.
