It’s not next gen footage. It’s the ps4 version played on a ps5

I’m extremely disappointed at the fact that they still haven’t fixed those ugly grass textures. Fifa and Pes have better cleaner looking grass textures than this game. I really don’t understand why they can’t make the grass look better.

This is how the grass should look

Even if it was current gen footage, you can't expect the graphics to make a major leap until the old gen is no longer supported.

Ball Player introduction, which sounds like a component of RTTS (probably the part where you can bring your RTTS player into DD). It's not a full rebrand since they are still using the term Road to the Show.

It's a good thing that they said in the video you can turn all those off

The new off z-axis plays look nice, but those over the shoulder infield catches on bloops look over the top. It seems like bloopers may not happen much anymore. Those infielders were literally making plays in mid-outfield. It just doesn't look realistic when an infielder is making a play that deep in the outfield. 3. I know many of you are saying this is PS4 gameplay on the PS5, but that hasn't been corroborated and if this is PS5 graphics, I'm highly disappointed as it looks exactly like the previous Gen graphics.

It will take another year or two to improve graphics wise. Remember, we were and still are in a pandemic.

Agreed. It’s a (subjectively) small thing, but I think it goes a long way to the authenticity of the stadiums. The grass, and grass patterns, looks outdated and just often wrong in The Show. Kauffman has had a weird wavy outfield pattern for years that I’ve been begging to see removed in favor of a more often used straight grid pattern.
