News: Major League Baseball 2K5: World Series Edition is being pitched our way this October.
If sports fans howled at the yearly roster updates before, you ain't seen nothin' yet. 2K Games has announced that they will release Major League Baseball 2K5: World Series Edition this October for the PS2 and Xbox.
The World Series Edition will include final 2005 rosters and the 2005 All-Star Team along with two new playoff-centric modes:
World Series Mode Ц Players experience the thrill of the game as they are given the opportunity to re-live or even re-write history. In the World Series Mode, gamers are invited to play some of the greatest World Series moments as they take on 10 of the most memorable World Series scenarios, including the '86 Mets, the Battle of the Bay and more.
Pennant Fever Mode Ц Gamers take their favorite MLB franchise all the way to the World Series, no matter what their team's current place is in the race to the pennant. Team records are locked in to match the real-life '05 Pennant race.
This package will also include an "exclusive World Series Edition DVD", whatever that means.
Pricing hasn't been revealed yet, but I doubt 2K Games could ever expect to get anything more than the $19.99 the first 2K5 retailed for.
