Hey everyone! Not sure if you have seen the equipment and all the new diamond bats they have out. I usually play season mode and don’t look at those things but I saw there is a Boston Red Sox Wally Diamond Bat and I was wondering if any of you know how I can get that?? Would greatly appreciate it!

I am a huge Red Sox fan ever since I was six years old in 1976. And Jim Rice is my all time favorite ball player and was excited when he was added to the show 22.

Same age as you and Rice is my all time favorite as well! Thanks for the heads up on Jim being in this year’s game. I only play franchise mode, so I would’ve never found this out. So excited!

My understanding is that the disc must be in the machine no matter what version you want to play. Once the disc is inserted on the PS5, go to the PlayStation store and search for MLB The Show 21. You should see a PS5 version that has two price tags, “Free” and “69.99.” Choose the free version and it should start downloading. At least that it worked for me.

The code was on the sheet inside the box. That is for all the special Jackie Robinson add-ons. I did that first, just by happenstance. I couldn’t figure it out. Went into the store and found the game and it showed a free download

Thank you for posting this! For the life of me I couldn’t figure out how to download my PS5 version. I would’ve never have thought to go into the PS store.
I kind of figured the PS5 version would’ve downloaded automatically once the code was entered and accepted. Really weird and cumbersome way of doing this.
They should have put explicit instructions on the insert on how to obtain the PS5 version.
