In a free update which is live now, the Iowa cornfield can now be found in the Classic Stadiums section when playing a game.
As well as the cornfield stadium itself, the game is also adding some Field of Dreams related content in Diamond Dynasty mode, including a new Event, a Showdown vs Felix Hernandez, a Choice Pack and a Conquest Map.
While players have already been using the game's custom players and stadium creator to recreate beloved film locations like The Sandlot in MLB The Show 21, the Field of Dreams is its first officially licensed crossover. The real-world MLB has been working on its own tribute to the film for a while, as well. In 2020, a real-life version of the Field of Dreams just outside the original filming site in Iowa was constructed, where a real season game between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Yankees was planned to take pace. That game was ultimately postponed due to the pandemic, but it is now scheduled to be played on August 12.
Recreating Campo dos Sonhos was not a simple task and needed a very fluid approach in the construction process. They started by listing all the elements in the stadium that would be unique and represent the location, such as the milram. They also started to draw the location of the lighting structures, seating area and the general surroundings. One of the most important technical elements was the dimensions of the field.
What’s even more interesting is the behind-the-scenes blog post detailing how Sony San Diego built the field. Interestingly enough, since the field was under construction while the studio built its own version, the developers had to rely on early artwork and the architect’s previous work, updating their version as the real one came together.
Field of Dreams was a 1989 movie starring Kevin Costner, based on the 1982 novel Shoeless Joe.
The film tells the story of Ray Kinsella, a corn farmer who struggles with the knowledge that he never repaired his relationship with his baseball-obsessed father before he died.
The Field of Dreams in MLB The Show 21 is both a fun nod to the classic film and an interesting tie-in to an actual MLB event, as one can theoretically play along with the White Sox and Yankees' digital counterparts while the game is happening live in Iowa. While nothing of the sort has been confirmed at press time, this crossover could open the door to future MLB crossovers in the future. MLB The Show will have EA's baseball games to compete with soon, so direct collaboration with the league could set Sony's franchise apart in fans' minds.
