When MLB The Show 21 was released, it also joined the Xbox Game Pass lineup, but that didn't hurt its sales. According to a recent report from Sony, MLB The Show 21 on Xbox is a large part of its success.
It was surprising enough to learn that the formerly PlayStation-exclusive baseball sim would launch on Microsoft’s consoles — making this the first “simulation-quality game” to launch on Xbox since Major League Baseball 2K13.
This marks not only the debut of the series on non-PlayStation platforms, but also the first time Sony has published a game on Xbox. It’s mighty strange that MLB The Show 21 would arrive on Game Pass rather than Sony’s own PlayStation Plus. Perhaps it’ll show up there as well at some point, but this is still a highly unusual deal.
Along those lines, in the blog post announcing the The Show‘s imminent Game Pass arrival, MLB senior VP of games and VR wrote that “this is an incredible moment for all of us and bringing the franchise to more players and baseball fans is something that we at MLB, MLB Players, Inc., and Xbox are all excited about.” Interestingly, the Microsoft Store lists the game’s publisher as the MLB, while the PlayStation Store lists it as Sony Interactive Entertainment.
MLB The Show 21 launched on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S at the same time as PS4 and PS5 which likely helped the sales of the game stay high. The game's inclusion in the Xbox Game Pass lineup made several PlayStation fans speculate that sales on Xbox would be hurt, but that isn't the case according to this quarterly report.
Now, Xbox Game Pass is easily the best deal in gaming for sports fans — it has most of the major franchise titles, including NBA 2K, Madden NFL, Football Manager, FIFA, and NHL. (Electronic Arts’ sports games are part of EA Play, which comes with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.)
Xbox Game Pass was already perhaps the best deal in gaming and the addition of MLB The Show 21 sweetens the pot even further.
The Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 will run the game at 4K/60 FPS. The new Stadium Creator mode is also exclusive to the next-gen versions. However, MLB The Show 21 does feature cross-play and cross-progression, so even if your buddies are stuck with the last-gen consoles, you can still face off against one another.
