Downloading and using the PS4 version worked for me without any additional config. Just had to choose the local copy when prompted about save conflict (in-game)

On PS5? Could you explain step by step what you did?

We shouldn’t have to find work arounds, we shouldn’t have to install ps4 versions, we shouldn’t have to wait days to weeks for an answer. You as a consumer bought a product on the free market that was fraudulent and misrepresented. Get in on this class action lawsuit now!

I'm not sure what the OP did but what I did on my PS5 is hit start on the game from the PS5 dashboard (NOT PLAY) but the start button, then select the "version" it should show PS4 and PS5 MLB21. When I select PS4 version all my DD and pre-order items are there and I can play just fine. If I select the PS5 version of the game all of my data/collection etc is gone. When I go on my Xbox I don't have an option for the Xbox versions, I'm on Xbox X and it only shows MLB 21. So I can't play it on my Xbox and have it go towards my progress.

Thank you, I just tried that but it still didn't work. This is such a massive problem that shouldn't even be dealt with in the first place, Thanks again for your help!

here's my ?, I have NO clue how PS4 doesn't see PS5 each other, why is my original PS5 data showing perfectly on my PS4 version of the game?
Next ?, if I say F IT and start over on my PS5, will that conflict with my PS4 data? I mean yes I have a good chunk of stubs around 40K and a decent amount of cards in my collection and some pre-order cards, but IF I start over what's going to happen? I just lose my stuff and start from scratch?
I hear everyone upset about content and all, to be honest I JUST WANT TO PLAY, I don't however want to start playing and have it lose my data a second time.

Did you download the PS4 version on the PS5? I think I had to go the PSN store and download the PS4 version.
The covers look different if I'm not mistaken
-
yes i did, should I download them both at the same time?

I have both downloaded, I just had to make sure and select the PS4 version of the game from the dashboard.
-
I'm downloading both right now thanks!

welcome, hopefully it works for you, fingers crossed

Launching the PS4 version on the ps5 should work. The game does feel less smooth though
-
Same here. Tried doing the same and now my ps4 progress is gone. How do I get it back? Both say link but won't let me link account. Plus where do you enter the code given to you in game to link the accounts?
-
The PS4 version didn’t fix the issue
-
FYI
Victor provided an update about the unlinking stuff in general discussion thread. Lord willing this fix works.
I got pretty far into the game smh, but I’ll take my preorders. I enjoy the grind. Check out his post. Hopefully this fixes this.
And hopefully SDS can make up for the delay and frustration. I’m hopeful.

Good luck to all with this update. Fingers crossed. Hope to see you all in the diamond tomorrow!

How do I go about unlinking an account on the website? it shows that my Xbox account is linked on the site but in-game it's saying to link my account. The worst thing about this is that my Xbox profile took over my PlayStation profile. So now all my diamond dynasty levels went from 11 to 5 and I lost my squad I had and it got replaced with my Xbox squad. I would really love it if I could unlink that account on the site and get my PlayStation diamond dynasty team back. Kinda [censored] that this happened, yet I can't use my MLB the show 20 save file for RTtS.
