MLB: The Show 22 is coming to Nintendo Switch, and will feature cross-save, cross-play, and cross-progression across all consoles.
Announced during a reveal event, the Sony first-party game will now be playable on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Switch. You’ll be able to play and carry save data across all platforms by creating an MLB: The Show account. The game will once again hit Xbox Game Pass on launch day.
MLB: The Show arrived on Xbox for the first time last year, after MLB itself asked Sony San Diego to make the series multiplatform. This year’s edition marks the first time the series has come to a Nintendo platform, and is the first portable version of the game since MLB: The Show on Vita in 2015.

Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Angels will be the cover athlete on the standard edition of this year’s game. Collector’s editions of the game will feature a different star, who is yet to be revealed.
The game is available to pre-order now, and will be released on April 5, 2022.
