MLB The Show 22 return of Stadium Creator is confirmed
MLB The Show 22 has formally been announced, and along with it we've learned that last year's new addition of Stadium Creator will return!
Unfortunately, MLB The Show 22 Stadium Creator remains an exclusive to next gen versions of the game, so only players with it on PS5 or Xbox Series X|S will have access.
Last year was a solid debut for Stadium Creator, but it had plenty of issues that they continued to remedy with updates and bug fixes after the game launched.
Some of that has also informed this year's version, as MLB The Show 22 Stadium Creator introduces a better streamlined user interface and night games for the first time.
We'll likely also see more props and additional fine tuning, as last year's mode got a lot of the core ideas right but needed plenty of refinement.

MLB The Show 21 logos will auto transfer, but not stadiums
One of the exciting pieces of information we learned around the same time as the MLB The Show 22 cover athlete reveal was that some uploaded creations would auto transfer from MLB The Show 21.
After a bit of confusion at first, it's now been cleared up by the FAQ page on The Show's website only custom logos will transfer this year.
That means any logos made in Logo Creator and uploaded to the vault in MLB The Show 21 will automatically be available to download in MLB The Show 22.
Unfortunately, it's now been confirmed that custom Stadiums will not automatically transfer like that for MLB The Show 22.
The most likely reason for this is improvements to the Stadium Creator feature, as any changes there could cause issues with stadiums created in the old version.
For creators, this means they'll want to keep details and reference images about how they created stadiums if they hope to quickly recreate the same designs in MLB The Show 22.
For players, it means some of your favorite uploaded Community Stadiums may not be available at launch. If that's the case, players may want to enjoy spend some extra time enjoying those creations in MLB The Show 21 until the next installment arrives.
