2K Sports announced today that Major League Baseball 2K6 is slated for release in early spring 2006. Featuring New York Yankees All-Star shortstop Derek Jeter as the cover athlete and official spokesperson, Major League Baseball 2K6 will debut new features that will set a new standard for baseball video games.

Major League Baseball 2K6 will be the exclusive and only officially licensed Major League Baseball video game to appear on every major gaming console including the Xbox 360 and Xbox video game and entertainment systems from Microsoft, the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, the PSP (PlayStation Portable) system and the Nintendo GameCube.

"We've assembled an amazing team to deliver the highest quality baseball title on every major video game platform," stated Greg Thomas, president of Visual Concepts, a 2K Sports studio. "2K Sports has pushed the boundaries of our entire line-up of games this year and Major League Baseball 2K6 will be no exception."


"With Major League Baseball 2K6, 2K Sports has captured the essence of our National pastime," stated Derek Jeter. "It's been a great pleasure and honor to represent the finest baseball game on any video game system. I'm really impressed with the new graphics and features that Major League Baseball 2K6 will bring to baseball fans everywhere."

As one of the most respected and recognizable Major League Baseball players, Derek Jeter wrapped up the 2005 season by winning his second consecutive Gold Glove award. Over the last 10 seasons (1996-2005), Jeter leads the major leagues with an impressive 1,924 hits and ranks second with 1,154 runs. As the team captain of the New York Yankees, Jeter's charisma, talent and intense drive have earned him numerous awards and have cemented him as one of the greatest players to ever don the Yankee pinstripes.

As the exclusive and official Major League Baseball multi-platform video game, Major League Baseball 2K6 includes innovative features such as a new movement system and realistic player collisions on the infield and outfield. New broadcast elements include flashback replays, and a unique player morale system will unfold the drama like never before in a baseball video game. 2K Sports will be announcing additional new features and enhancements leading up to the release of Major League Baseball 2K6 that will take the virtual baseball experience to the next level.

I hope they use MLB 2K4 as a template for this game and forget that MLB 2K5 ever existed.
