This week Sony revealed an April 20th release date for MLB The Show 21. They also revealed that the game will be available on the PS4 and PS5 with cross-platform and cross-progression play on the Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S (a first for the series). Pre-orders for the game are live now, and you’ll want to reserve the Jackie Robinson Deluxe Collector’s Edition sooner rather than later.

Naturally, there are several confusing options to consider when it comes to pre-ordering MLB The Show 21. However, the physical Deluxe / Collector’s Edition is the pre-order to have for superfans, and it features none other than Jackie Robinson on the cover. Pre-orders are live here at Best Buy and here at Walmart for $99.99 (Options for both the Playstation and Xbox should be up via these links soon). It includes the following:
