We hit the motion capture studio for the first time ever to create hundreds of new animations which take the 3D in-game action to a whole new level. Diving plays, shoestring catches, hitters celebrating a walk-off in style: it’s all there (except for a fancy bat flip creation feature — sorry about that)!

Super stoked about this game. OOTP 19 was an amazing game that took all of my free time. I can't wait to get my hands on OOTP 20. I can't believe it's been 20 years... Here's to 20 more OOTP!! Love what you do. Keep doing it!

This is the absolute baseball simulation game available. MLB The Show is the  cream of the crop for consoles but I personally believe this game for PC is the best overall & in depth baseball game available. Looks like they've also added more new stuff for OOTP 20. This game is a must get for die-hard baseball fans.
I know PC simulation baseball has become less popular in recent years but MLB The Show is all there is now for consoles besides RBI Baseball which is an arcade style baseball game.  I know that I'm going to pick me up a copy of OOTP 20 just like I have with this game for the last 3 years.

Such a great game. Easy to get immersed in. Everything you could want in managing an organization combined with the ability to edit and mod pretty much anything you want. So impressed with what OOTP team pulls off each year! I'm addicted

Excited for this edition! I recently upgraded to 19 for the sale price, but smarter AI and the ability to create even more strategically nuanced lineups have me thinking about preordering. Also like the shade they threw about the bat flips

OOTP with improving 3D models and animations?

This game is gonna have to be renamed OOTPOP because it's getting totally OP now.

They are putting in a feature called "Live Services" where you can start from any date in the season with the rosters, injuries, stats, and records all true to life. That'll be a big deal for quite a few. Even better, I think, with this "Live Services" addition, you can elect to auto-update player ratings in an existing game as the real life season progresses. So, say goodbye to restarting due to dusty, old rosters...if someone breaks out in real life, just click a button and you've got that in your veins, too. Makes a lot of sense.

In addition to that, more granularity with 3D/animations, AI/logic upgrades (including new opener/follower designations for bullpen guys), and being able to insert a starting position player as a backup at other positions on the depth chart has my excitement level at 11 (on the 2-8 scale) for this game.

I've got 19. Why should I buy 20? And moreso, if I want to buy it, why not wait until year's end when it's on sale for $5?

In an era where so many publishers are disregarding management/franchise modes, I'm glad OOTP is still around and constantly improving.

The auto update player ratings is a big deal for me. Love this addition more than anything else!
