Sony releasing games on other consoles. We are in strange times.
It makes sense for all involved really, I don't think Sony actually sells many consoles because of MLB the show and nobody else is making baseball games so going multiplatform with it is a good idea, especially since it's a licensed product and they have to pay a certain amount for it. I don't think MLB would have pushed Sony to do this because Sony doesn't have an exclusive MLB license, the Show is just their title and they could have just dropped the series if they were being pressured by the MLB to support competing platforms and didn't think it would be beneficial financially. If MS, Nintendo or any 3rd party wanted to make a baseball game they likely could have if they were willing to pay MLB for the license. Sony making games for Xbox and Nintendo? times are changing lol.
They made ganes for Sega.
i guess this counts as a multiplayer game that could reach a bigger audience.
Watch it hit PC only

MLB might not have forced it but they have to want it. Seems like a case where everyone wins.
EA's baseball game was pretty good.
There will be no standard edition upgrade path from current gen to next-gen version of the game. If you are interested in having access to the game on both platforms, please wait for more info about the collector’s edition.
Having trouble understanding why Sony is publishing this for Xbox.
MLB was like “no multi plat, no license “Having trouble understanding why Sony is publishing this for Xbox.

I love baseball as much as the next buy but I still never understood why it is called the w"World" Series when they are just playing every team in the US besides one team in Canada?Cross play is good, just a shame that baseball is officially over for me now that the Cubs have won a WS and the Gators won a CWS and the game is still slower than dirt on crutches.
