Developer SIE San Diego Studio seems to keep listening to their fans as they release the newest MLB The Show 20 update 1.11. The new update covers one of the most complained features in the game which is the difficulty of hitting the ball.
Previously, the game has a smaller size of Plate Coverage Indicator, also known as PCI. With the release of the new update, the developer has increased its size as well as the timing window in Diamon Dynasty mode. Feedbacks for the increase of the feature are welcome according to the studio.
Apart from that, MLB The Show 20 update also makes some minor gameplay changes and implemented fixes to known issues. The freezing issue where the runner leading off of the first base has been fixed as well as the user-controlled outfielder to select a non-urgent throw which allows the opponent to take an extra base.
There is also a league change in MLB The Show 20. The new patch has corrected the Win-Loss records which are being displayed during pre-game scenes of playoff games in League Mode. Minor game fixes, stability, and performance improvements have also been applied. To know more about the new update, feel free to check the release notes below which was released on May 12th.
