After navigating the intro sequences in MLB The Show 25, the first order of business is tweaking your settings. The sheer number of options can be daunting, but we're here to simplify the process and get you hitting like a pro.

Hitting Interface

As in previous iterations, the Zone hitting interface reigns supreme in MLB The Show 25. It offers unparalleled freedom, allowing precise PCI placement within the batter's box. While initially challenging, mastering this control provides a significant advantage, especially when reacting to those hanging curveballs.

PCI Settings

Finding the perfect PCI settings is a personal journey. However, the settings above offer a solid starting point, visualizing the PCI as a bat to better predict ball contact. Focusing on that sweet spot takes practice, but the payoff is well worth the effort.

Adjust the Color and Opacity settings based on game time. Yellow works well for day games, but switching to Blue or Green might improve performance during night games.

Experiment with the new PCI Anchor settings; they allow adjustments based on the batter and pitcher. While we didn't find a dramatic impact, your mileage may vary.

Camera Settings

While PCI mastery is crucial, the camera view is equally important. A distant camera can be distracting; Strike Zone 2 provides an optimal view, placing you squarely in the action.

These are our recommendations for optimal hitting settings in MLB The Show 25. Good luck, and may your hits be many!
