Awesome news! Anyone know if it extends past batting gloves, bands and cleats? Are mitts, elbow/shin guards involved? I tried to zoom in on the picture of the on deck hitter with the shin guard. May or may not have seen an evo-shield logo.

I'm sure people will be happy with licensed equipment.

Side note: Dodger Stadium is still incorrect (I submitted all the info months ago at the show nation) they got the LF bullpen overlook correct, but they still have the retired numbers under the shade roofs in the OF when in real life they were moved to the 2nd deck in LF.

Ok so it may not be the game we will see but.....

Visually it hasn't moved on. Player models still the same, uniforms the same and (yes ill say it) grass still same washed out carpet.

Pretty dissapointed with that snippet.

Can Derek Jeter be considered a legend

Good to see licensed equipment in the game.

Terrible to see the player models still look the same, seems like graphics didn't improve at all, hopefully just because it was an early trailer, but i doubt it.


Edit: Puig lost a glove rounding the bases.

I'm not trying to be a tool here...but why is everyone praising Sony so much for including licensed equipment? I'm not a fanboy of any company. I just want good games, I don't care who makes them. EA, 2k, heck everyone else, has had this for over a decade now. To me, it was inexcusable not to have it. Especially when they've had the Nike undershirts for 2 years now. They've obviosuly had the license, just been too lazy to implement the gear into the game. I'm glad this is coming. It looked so strange having tv-quality graphics with all generic gear. But, you all know if the roles were reversed and this was EA, everyone would be mocking them for not putting it in the game YEARS earlier.
