MLB The Show no longer PlayStation exclusive post 2020 release

We already knew MLB The Show 20 was on the way for PlayStation 4 in March 2020, but on Monday, the news Xbox fans have been waiting for finally arrive.

Per Sony and MLB, the MLB The Show series will no longer be a Sony exclusive, and the game is likely headed to Xbox and perhaps PC beginning in 2021. This expansion is a part of a new multi-year, multi-platform extension to Sony’s partnership with MLB and MLBPA.

Ever since the MLB 2K series was canceled in 2014, there hasn’t been a major baseball franchise available for Xbox, Nintendo or PC. Lesser titles like RBI Baseball couldn’t close the gap, and while the Super Mega Baseball series is fantastic, it’s not a simulation. If the MLB The Show series does land on the other consoles, it would become an automatic must-have for any baseball fans who exclusively own a Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

In fact, the potential PC version could be the most exciting. Most sports games launch a modding community once it hits PC, and depending upon the creations, the sport of baseball might have the most impressive mods.
