We are only a few hours away from the MLB The Show 24 early access release, and the anticipation surrounding the game reached a new high. However, many fans still don't know if they will be able to enjoy the game on PS4 & Xbox One.
Despite the PS5 & Xbox Series X being three years old plenty of gamers around the world continue to enjoy gaming on their old hardware. So will Sony & San Diego Studio continue to cater to them? Or will they finally move fully into the new era of gaming?
Let's take a look at what we know so far.
Is MLB The Show 24 on PS4 & Xbox One?
MLB The Show 24 is available for the PS4 and Xbox One platforms. The Standard Edition of the game can still be pre-ordered for these platforms, and it offers similar rewards to last year.
Despite their age, sports games are still released on previous-generation consoles due to their player bases. EA's FC 24 & Madden 24 dropped on PS4 and Xbox One, as did 2K's NBA 2K24. MLB The Show 24 won't be an exception, even though it can be the last of the franchise to do so.
SDS is a Sony studio, so it could feasibly follow the trend of letting the old consoles fade away. This won't happen this year, but we wouldn't be surprised if MLB The Show 24 ends up being the last entry of the franchise available for Last-Gen consoles.
With some sports and racing games starting to leave the old consoles behind, we hope MLB follows that trend and evolves into a fully next-gen experience.
