MLB 14 The Show Available As Day 1 Digital Download Available to Download Now (PS4)

03:28 PM - May 5, 2014 by Steve_OS

MLB 14 The Show will be available as a Day 1 digital download at 12:01 AM EST on May 6th. (SEE UPDATES BELOW) Similar to how users were able to download the PS3 version, expect it to be available at that time, give or take a few minutes.

It doesn't appear as though you will be able to pre-download, as some hoped with the latest PlayStation update. VG24/7 noted Watch Dogs will be the first game available for pre-download, releasing on May 27th.

UPDATE: As of 10:30 AM EST, the game is still not available to download.

UPDATE #2: Due to unforeseen technical issues, MLB 14 The Show for PS4 is not currently available for download via the PlayStation Store. All parties are working as quickly as possible to remedy the issue. We�ll update this post as soon as a resolution is reached. Thank you for your continued patience.

UPDATE #3: Based off of the many responses, the download should be available for everyone now.

So if you anticipate it's going to take awhile, start getting it ready earlier?

No, some of us do. Like I said before, that is something that should have been considered by Sony before making statements about downloading at 12:01.

Certainly, but in the same regard you must be held accountable for the promises you make especially in retail. Its not as if they are rushing to get it to work for the first time right now. This has been in the works for weeks and then simply dropped the ball.

Seriously, folks I understand your frustrtations, but this thread will not be derailed by the whining and immature gifs and memes. It ends now. Next come, warnings and the hammer. Smarten up.

If you can't make your product available at the date and time promised, then don't advertise it as such. I don't care how hard it is to perform. Don't say it's available at 12:01 if it's not. Why apologize for a company making things more difficult for it's consumers. Demand the best from them, so that you get the best... so many of you are sad servants...

# 174 Mitchrapp @ 05/06/14 12:33 AM

Only 9:40 here. I have 365.2.20 days left to play..

# 175 EUBlink @ 05/06/14 12:33 AM

This has been pretty hilarious. The meltdown mixed with my cough meds has made for a pretty good time. Thanks, OS.

On topic, I'm going to trust the automatic download not to let me down tonight, else I'll have to show my white trash side on the internets. No, I'm not calling anyone out. At least not individually.

# 176 mgoblue678 @ 05/06/14 12:33 AM

Stills says pre-order for me. Anybody else getting something different?

# 177 rawgator06 @ 05/06/14 12:34 AM

finally. Spiderman 2 started downloading

Or maybe we just dont care that we have to wait a little bit. There are millions of things you could be doing right now.

# 179 erod550 @ 05/06/14 12:34 AM

Still says pre-order here too.
