You keep access to both, but you'd need the Ps4 disc to play the ps5 version.

So you're saying the ps4 standard edition is not a digital download?

If you bought the standard game on digital, then you're good and will have the digital copies for both generations. But if you bought the standard game physical, the Ps5 version would be digital and require the Ps4 disc to play it. Either way you'd have access to both generations.

@ikasnu_psn said in SDS I mean really! Why can’t Sounds of the show be added to next gen?:

I made a spotify Playlist that has majority of songs from MLBTS and a few additions that fit the game. I'll add in the new songs too once they're known.

How is that the same? For me it’s the Batter intros and such that’s cool. I mean I can turn my own music on. Maybe I’m missing something. Maybe 23 will have it. If we are all still here.

Unfortunately you can't in that regard.

@ikasnu_psn said in When did MLB The Show First come out with Steelbooks?:

Iirc 15 was the first year.

Thank you, I can't find any Steel Book Edition from before The Show 15. I guess I do have them all.

I thought they weren't doing a Collectors version this year? Do you mean the MVP Edition, or the Collector's Edition (that usually came with a hat)?

@dap1234567890 said in Physical MVP Edition - No hat?:

@tangojuliet24 said in Physical MVP Edition - No hat?:

Did they ever give a reason? Is there another version (collector’s edition) coming out at a later date?

SDS FAQ page...First question in the MVP Edition section!

It's still sad. I have each hat displayed with the Steelbook on my shelf. It was a nice collection. I love The Show 22's Steelbook look this year, but without the hat to go along with it, I am leaning towards playing it with Game Pass.

@samusuppiluliuma said in Famous illustrator Takashi Okazaki creates MLB The Show 22’s Collector’s Edition cover art featuring Shohei Ohtani:

Illustrated cover looks bad.

i agree it looks horrendous !!

standard copy for me this year - their deluxe packs are a joke if you are somewhat decent at the game just earn stubs through RS and events

Must purchase via retail I thought

Am I correct in interpreting the FAQs that we will not be able to use players, rosters, franchises, or stadiums created in MLBTS21 in the new MLBTS22?

If this is true, then I guess I don't understand why SDS has a fairly in depth player editor as well as a player vault, roster vault, and stadium vault. Is SDS really expecting customers of their game to recreate players, rosters, and stadiums every year from scratch? Does that make any logical sense? At all?

Isn't that how it was though? I don't think we saw a big influx of 99s until the ASG. Also hardest hit ball on the statcast era is a GBDP.

@surfinsantacruz_xbl said in MLBTS 22 Gamepass confirmed.:

4/5/22

I wonder when they’ll take out 21.

Last year I preordered the game and thought it would drop off gamepass after a month.
Well, it's still on there so no way I will buy it this year.
Gamepass rules!

April 5th is a pretty solid bet.

@doppelganger39 said in Showtime on the cover:

I thought they had to take the AL or NL MVP?

They have not used an actual league MVP on the cover since The Show 16 when Donaldson was on the cover after he won the 2015 MVP.

That is really all that RTTS has ever been. How you advance your stats has changed over the years but essentially it is just play games player locked into your RTTS character. They have made lame attempts at "storylines" and implements archetypes and perks and such but you still need to play he games.

On the plus side from what has been posted here it sounds like you will be able to create multiple players next year. But I don't expect a major overhaul for RTTS this year.

Man that’s a lot of hours we put. Content creators and hard core folks that play every game. Happy I played with Bacon’s fictional roster. I can just keep playing 21 with zero issues. For those who are not going to buy 22, do not do the updates to your 21 game for potential breaking.

@the_dragon1912 said in The Show cover info and discussion:

Braves will either get their first cover or the blue jays will get their 2nd cover in 23, not thats really the point of this post though

Not that it matters to me when all things are considered but I assume you are talking Acuna or Vlad Jr?

In the end it will depend on how they perform in 22. No reason to believe that either will have a major dropoff in '22 but stranger things have happened.

Again based on performance, and my favorite team, I would like to think that if Arenado or Goldy have really good seasons that they would be considered. Their careers have merited it plus they both have fans not only St louis but also their previous cities (both of which have also not had a cover).

Don't tell me they never resolved this issue??? LMAO. Considering they made their RTTS all about being a 2way player, they never resolved the problem where the premier 2 way player cant be used as such in their premier mode smh.

Sometimes I would see him on my bench available to pinch hit. Sometimes I don't

As far as coming in as a relief pitcher from the dugout, I dont even think that was ever an option LOL. Gotta cheese your way in there. Put him on the field, then move him over to pitch. Or pinch hit for the pitcher with Ohtan

@jake98833_psn said in The high off speed pitches:

I can't time high curves and changeups consistently but I can hit high fastballs consistently are timing windows quicker for offspeed pitches up in the zone

Isnt it funny that the two pitches you never throw up high in the zone are the most difficult to hit in a realistic baseball game? Three if u count the sinker

Honestly if it's not fixed in 22 I'll just buy God of War and wait for a mid season sale

Your stronger than me. Last purchase was '19. Done with the moving goal posts lol. I just hop on 19 when I need my baseball fix

It's really hard for me to throw in the towel on this series it's really the only decent sports game left but they have done gameplay/presentation so much better in other games especially on PS3

It's disappointing to say the least 😕 Tired of the tired excuses..My opinion, this is a $40 game. Not a AAA $60-$70 game.

At least in NBA2k the animations and gameplay are much more exciting. Seeing the same swings, animations, and overall gameplay over and over is a bore. Especially in high octane moments,(which are not many), the game(virtual fans) and announcers are almost lifeless.

It makes the hard grind through 9 innings to win a game by 1 run, very boring.
