HOME RUN - Only on Next Gen can you create this winter masterpiece

We knew a Stadium Creator feature was on the way, but it transpires that this will only be for Next Gen consoles.

It includes over 100 props with a pre-approved set of 130 tested wall configurations, ensuring there will be no issues with online play.

Other features on Next Gen include haptic feedback on PS5 - meaning you will feel the difference between a left and right-hander, and each type of slide will feel different.
