We are so close to pitchers and catchers reporting for Spring Training that baseball fever is is starting to bleed into our everyday lives. And with Spring Training comes the release of arguably the best sports simulation game on the market with Sony and San Diego Studio’s MLB: The Show.
For this year’s game, Sony is releasing a commemorative 10th anniversary edition (has it really been 10 years?!) that comes with a unique steel book case and exclusive cover — which still features Los Angeles Dodgers phenom, Yusiel Puig — and it’s stuffed with in-game bonuses and other goodies. And all for around $10 more than the cost of the retail version of the game. As the Seattle Mariners late great Dave Neihaus used to say, “My Oh My!”
Over $130 worth of stuff for only $10 more!
As the Official PlayStation Blog details, the special 10th Anniversary MLB 15: The Show will come with the following:
- Exclusive MLB 15 The Show 10th Anniversary Wood Grain SteelBook and Exclusive Cover
- 12k in Stubs ($9.99 value)
- 15 Bonus Item packs ($15.00 value)
- All 30 MLB Team Dynamic Themes ($ 3.49 each retail)
- Official MLB 15 Dynamic Theme ($3.49 retail)
In addition to the nearly $130 dollars in cool stuff in the package, there are also pre-order bonuses at most retail outlets like GameStop, Best Buy, and Amazon. One of the best offerings is a voucher to pick up team-based Skinits for the Dual Shock 4 controller.
Customize your controller with your team’s colors and logos with Skinit.
An all-digital version of the MLB 15: The Show 10th Anniversary Edition will also be available, with the pre-order starting on February 10. It will include all of the goodies listed, just not the steelbook case.
As in previous years, Canada is getting it’s own cover with Russell Martin of the Toronto Blue Jays getting the call this year. Unfortunately, the MLB 15: The Show 10th Anniversary Edition will not be available in-store in Canada.
The 10th Anniversary Edition of MLB 15: The Show is exclusive only to the Playstation 4 version of the game, and remember, this year’s game allows for Road to the Show progress and Franchise information to carry over from last year’s game.
Expect more info about the hotly anticipated game to come in the next few weeks as we get ever closer to hearing “Play ball!”
MLB 15: The Show steps into the batter’s box on March 31 for the Playstation 4, Playstation 3, and Playstation Vita game systems.
