Has SDS actually answered this, or are we just guessing?
Not really a guess when you figure that the rewards are linked to the account that buys the game. So if you buy the DD with your PS5 account; those rewards will go on that account.
If you buy the DD with the Switch account; then they will go on that account.
I can't see them letting you combine the rewards because when you earn a player; you don't get two of that player.
Also, it could be treated like how any stubs that are purchased on the Switch won't be available on the PS5. But if you earn them, then you will have them.
What you're doing is linking two accounts into one.
But you can earn the same player more than once. Who’s to say that buying the DD twice doesn’t give you twice the rewards? These are mostly packs which could easily be doubled.
What I mean is that if you're playing on the PS5 and you earn a Choice pack for a player; once you pick that player that Choice pack is gone. If you go into a game with the Switch then; it will be in the SAME spot that you just left with the PS5. So you won't have that Choice pack anymore.
Seems like it would be the same with preorders.
Can we get a dev to chime in on this?

Also wondering about this, did anyone get a response from SDS? I’m looking to purchase on both PS5 and switch but will mostly play on PS5. Not fussed if the bonuses don’t carry over but don’t want to short change myself if they do

It’s not looking like we’re going to get an answer, so I’m just going with the standard.

I’ve asked this question here and on Reddit and never gotten an official response. No one seems to know for sure and is speculating. Would love to here from SDS.

I’ll let you know on Friday. I’m getting the DD for Xbox and MVP for PS5.

Bump
SDS, please answer.

I don’t see what the big deal here is. Buy the early access version for your main platform and get the regular game for your backup. It’s only four days.
If you want all the goodies x2, you’re better off spending the $ on packs and stubs, not buying two of the same version.

I’m buying the game on switch regardless. So that’s $60. The deluxe version lands you 25k stubs and 20 packs ($45 if bought in game). You also get 5 guaranteed gold cards, a ball player item, and two diamonds (cover and special art card). If there is a collection for the cover diamonds or the artwork diamonds they will be worth a ton for the first couple of months Ike the 42 series last year. That’s a much better deal than paying $60 for the switch version and then buying $49 worth of stubs/packs in game. But it’s a moot point if the deluxe bonuses don’t stack since I already have the PS5 version pre ordered.

Has anyone gotten a concrete answer on this? I feel like this would be a pretty common occurrence this year with people wanting to play on PS/XB and portable on switch. Have been trying to hold off on pre ordering until we have an answer so I don’t waste money, but it’s cutting it close

I am wondering the same exact thing. I won’t be home this weekend but will have access to my Switch so plan on purchasing the DD version on there. I get back Sunday and prefer my primary console to be my PS5. Just don’t want to purchase both DD versions if rewards aren’t there just for two days early on PS5, I would just finish out on Switch until standard release two days later.
-
I had posted this question a while back as well. My original plan was that I bought the DD PS5 and a regular hard copy for the switch. My plans changed and I was going to be out of town during the 4 day early access. So I cancelled my hard copy pre-order and bought the DD for the switch. Now I have copies of DD for both consoles.

So, did you get both?

I bought early access on PS5 and standard on Switch. I cannot play on Switch early because when I click on game it checks internet and declines stating it should be available on 4/5.

From the FAQ
It varies by platform and the edition you purchase. Linking accounts between Xbox and PlayStation will allow you to receive the bonuses from purchase of MLB The Show 22 on those platforms, regardless of which edition of the game you purchased. Players who purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition or the digital version of the Standard Edition on Nintendo Switch will not be able to share bonus items across platforms, even with linked accounts. Players who purchase the physical version of the Standard Edition on Nintendo Switch can share bonus items, but are advised to link the account in-game (available on 4/1) BEFORE entering any voucher codes you may have, to avoid potential issues with redeeming them. -

I did. Double all rewards. The only issue is that stubs (25k) are tied to the individual console. The cards you get from the packs go into your normal mlb account. The stubs aren’t a big deal as I will just buy 25k worth of cards from the marketplace that I need for collections anyway.
Edit: I got the Xbox and PS deluxe versions, not the switch.

I just hate that it won’t do it for Switch and PS5

I got the DD for Xbox, but FedEx hasn’t delivered my physical MVP version for PS5 yet. It was supposed to be delivered today, but the tracking says delayed and claims it will be here tomorrow. Hopefully that’s correct, I don’t want to wait until Monday for them to deliver it.

I got impatient and wanted to play ps5, so I got the mvp after the deluxe on switch. I got both rewards, stubs and packs from both preorders.
