The MLB doesn't make that decision, Sony does. The MLB did make the decision on Xbox because they're publishing the game there, but Sony still oversees publishing on The Show.If this is what MLB wanted, to get the game into as many hands as possible quick, I wouldn't be surprised to see it on PSNow. Maybe that announcement is forthcoming. Maybe that will happen at a later date due to a contract with MS etc. PS+ would be a bit of a different story. Once you give it away there your sales are kind of done, because everyone can keep those forever. With GP/PSNow you can do a limited time thing like RDR2.
The weak think if they fanboy on the internet, a corporation will befriend them.The weak always did have to buy friends

Yes it isRIGHT!!!! This isnt ok at all
Not to mention the fact that Sony's own first party studio didnt put any effort into improving visuals for next gen. Like Fifa and NBA2k did back at launch.Lmfaoooooooo.
im here for the melt downs, and i think this is pretty great for customers (on xbox) at least. But man Jim is just doing everything he can to piss off the playstation community. Our first party exclusive game that players on our competitor can play with a subscription but you guys who bought our hardware have to pay 70 bucks. Lmfao you cannot make this shit up!
Yeah thats embarassing too, honestly this years fifa and nba 2k look absolutely unrealNot to mention the fact that Sony's own first party studio didnt put any effort into improving visuals for next gen. Like Fifa and NBA2k did back at launch.
So First Party Studio who shouldve gotten access to next gen specs years ago.
6 Months Of Extra Dev Time After Launch of New Consoles.
No Visual Enhancements.
We do get an xbox port developed from the ground up on Xbox's 4 consoles.
Sony First Party Studio's first sports game:
Nope. This is MLBs decision since they own players likenesses from what I was toldWonder if Sony even was a part of the decision.
Cool either way.

Makes some quotes in the other threads seem funny now.
MLB The Show 21 announcement trailer. Confirmed PS5 & 4. Xbox One and Series S & X
But Soto does it betterwww.neogaf.com
Oh come on, lighten up, it’s funny as fuck.Sony developed game comes to GP and people are still shitting on Sony/PS....
At this point Xbots don't even deserve it imo.
They aren't publishing on XBox.They are the publisher and the studio behind it. So they are getting paid.
They aren't publishing on XBox.
Of course they'd be getting paid though; via their publishing agreement w/ MLB.. but I am wondering if Sony even was asked about the GamePass thing.
You just have to know where to look. You can find it for under $4.00 online.The narrative that Gamepass is just years old games ended with Outriders and this.

This is MLBs decision and in the end I believe what you said is right. Depending on how long Sony studios Contract is with the MLB, I can see Sony pulling out from production going forward.Isent this game published by MLB on Xbox? So Sony and Jim dont have any saying in this.
What i wonder is, if this will start a bad relation beteween Sony and MBL that might make stop developing MLB games.
Its a curious one for sure.
Are they seriously charging $70 for a yearly sports game?This is such a 4D chess move by Microsoft. Bravo!
Now Sony is left with two options:
My God, what a calculated move by MS. Checkmate!
- Charge $70 from PlayStation users and feel the backlash.
- Make it free on PS+ and lose all the money they were going to earn from sales.
You know they don't get to keep the games, right? They don't own Outriders or this, it won't be on GamePass permanently. Don't they leave after a few months?
I bet Sony is pissed. MLB is calling the shots here, it's pretty much out of Sony’s hands.
That's the way it works with sports games. If you don't have the rights to the MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, etc, you don't even need to bother making a sports game. So, you do what they say.
At least this is a chance for Sony to demo on GamePass a small taste of the quality of Sony first-party studios.
I honestly can’t imagine how Sony is okay with this. What a crazy turn of events.

The fanbase is on PlayStation and will continue to buy it. Sony are not in a position where they have to lose billions to become relevant again. They are already relevant, healthy and booming. They will continue selling games full price and not on a pass day 1.This is such a 4D chess move by Microsoft -- doing the GamePass deal with MLB, who is the publisher of the game, totally bypassing Sony. Bravo!

They already gave away The Show 19 on PS+. Not day one. Europeans was not happy when it happened as most ppl dont care about basebal here.No, please dont put this on PS+. Americans and your... bats!
Having a bad day, champ?I bet Sony is pissed. MLB is calling the shots here, it's pretty much out of Sony’s hands.
