The top baseball sports simulation game returns this April. Here is when the MLB The Show 22 release date is going to be.

MLB The Show 22 Release Date: April 5, 2022

Major League Baseball is back. MLB The Show 22 is coming out on April 5, 2022.

Sometimes overshadowed by the more popular FIFA and NBA 2K sports series of video games, MLB The Show has been building itself up as a serious contender over the years, even successfully killing off long-time competitor R.B.I Baseball. Although usually quiet and not that featured in the limelight, MLB The Show 22 will definitely be picked up regardless. Baseball is, after all, America’s favorite pastime. This year will be the first iteration of MLB The Show that has an increased focus on the current-gen consoles, albeit the game is available to previous-gen consoles as well. Purchasing digital versions of the game on previous-gen consoles can purchase a next-gen upgrade for only $10 any time down the line. The PS5 and Xbox Series X versions will feature 4K 60 FPS gameplay, as well as an advanced arena creation utility that will let players design their arenas to their wishes. MLB The Show 22 comes out free at no additional cost to Xbox Game Pass subscribers and will be the first game in the series coming out for the Nintendo Switch.

Aside from the next-gen features being added to the game, this year's version of MLB The Show appears to have the same exact features as last year's. While there are undoubtedly small changes to the game's features and mechanics to further improve them, as well as quality of life changes to make the game play better, MLB The Show 22 stays true to what fans would usually expect from an MLB The Show game.
