The card-based Diamond Dynasty has also been updated with different themed events, expanded missions, and special rewards, while the Conquest mode returns for turn-based strategy fans. Users can choose to take on full nine-inning games, or complete games much more quickly by controlling one player on the team, participating in only the most critical late-game situations, or choosing the Out of the Park Baseball-style text-based quick manage mode. The Franchise mode also returns to let gamers build a championship dynasty by controlling every aspect of their organization, from delegating managerial tasks and training prospects, to securing key sponsorships and actually playing games. The Retro mode is inspired by baseball games from the 1990s and it features pixelated graphics, one-button controls, couch co-op, throwback music, and commentary from cover star Ken Griffey Jr. The signature Road to the Show mode is back to let gamers guide a custom player from the minor leagues to the Hall of Fame, and the new Pave Your Path feature adds in off-the-field interactions that can alter a prospect's career in a number of ways.
