For the first time in the history of the franchise, “MLB The Show 24” will have a story mode dedicated to female athletes … with the hit video game announcing the groundbreaking addition on Tuesday.

The new feature — titled “Road to the Show: Women Pave the Way” — allows users to create and play as a woman in the Major League Baseball simulation game … with a unique narrative and scenes separate from the usual RTTS experience.

The mode’s narrative designer, Mollie Braley, said the story was inspired by real-life stories from women in baseball … including star athletes like Toni Stone and Kelsie Whitmore.

Braley explained to the PlayStation Blogthe importance of inclusion for women in baseball as the fan base continues to rise … and she’s hoping it will shine a light on the adversity many have faced within the sport.

Whitmore — who provided insight for the project — added she hopes the story mode helps inspire gamers to pursue their dreams … and educate them on what women and girls are able to do on the baseball diamond.

The Show hits shelves on March 19.
