After navigating the introductory sequences in MLB The Show 25, head straight to the settings menu. The sheer number of customizable options can be overwhelming, but fear not! This guide provides a solid starting point.

Hitting Interface

Consistent with previous MLB The Show iterations, the Zone hitting interface reigns supreme in MLB The Show 25. Its flexibility allows for precise PCI (Power Indicator) placement within the batter's box. While initially challenging, mastering this control offers unparalleled precision, especially when reacting to those tempting hanging curves.

PCI Settings

Finding the perfect PCI settings is a personal journey. However, the above configuration simplifies the process by visually representing the PCI as a bat, aiding in visualizing contact point. Practice is key to mastering this sweet spot.

Adjusting the Color and Opacity settings based on game time is recommended. Yellow generally works well for day games, but consider switching to Blue or Green for night games to enhance visibility.

Experiment with the new PCI Anchor settings to see if they improve your performance based on batter and pitcher matchups. Our testing showed minimal impact, but your mileage may vary.

Camera Settings

While PCI mastery is crucial, the hitting view significantly impacts performance. Excessive camera distance creates distractions, hindering focus. Strike Zone 2 provides an optimal balance, placing you directly in the heart of the action.

These settings provide a strong foundation for success in MLB The Show 25. Remember, practice makes perfect!
