I get that you can't STREAM from Gamepass, but can I buy it on Gamepass and play it?

    Do I have to have a console to play it or can I still BUY a copy on Gamepass and play it that way? Can I preorder like that with the digital copy? Or it won't even be put in GP's library to play at all?

    Can I just buy and download a copy?

    If I switch to PS5, can I get access to my now/later packs?

    @bucknut0211_MLBTS So I can buy a digital copy against my Xbox account, and I'll be able to play on my PC via Xbox for Windows?

    @OfcJDFarva_XBL You have to buy it on console and you can stream it from your console on Xbox for Windows.

    @OfcJDFarva_XBL Unless you have a console, you won't be able to play it on XBox for Windows

    @bucknut0211_MLBTS [censored] it. Is there a way to switch my progression over to PS5? I'll preorder a copy on PS5, but I play mainly PC, so I use Xbox through that.

    Like is there a way to get my Now and Later packs over to my PS5 when it comes out?

    @OfcJDFarva_XBL I'm not sure, but you can create an account at TheShow.com and then link your XBox and PS accounts and see if that works. I don't know if packs carry over from console to console or not. I only have it on Xbox. When I linked my PS account today, it gave me the option to link it to my account that I use on XBox. Don't know if anything transferred though.

    @bucknut0211_MLBTS Just trying to figure out what I should do. I really don't want to buy an Xbox. I bought my PS5 for NCAA, and I really thought I'd be able to play MLB on my PC.

    So you bought your PS5 specifically for one game and one game only?

    @Easy_Duhz_It__PSN For the time, yes. That doesn't mean in the future I won't need it for console-only games. Current events notwithstanding.

    Which is why I'm trying to figure out how to not lose my progression.

    @OfcJDFarva_XBL I have only played on Xbox since it became available and not Sony exclusive. Before that, I played on PS4. I am not 100% sure if it transfers between consoles. Maybe a message to support can answer this for you.

    I'm going to say no as sony may not allow it.

    No one does that.
