BRANCHING OUT: MLB The Show has jumped to new platforms in recent years

Most notably, there are separate entries classifying MLB The Show 23 for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

It's unlikely that the game would be submitted for an official rating classification with any potential platforms missing, so this is likely what fans can look forward to.

MLB The Show 23 expansion stalls, but past gen stays

We've seen continued expansion of the MLB The Show franchise in recent years as the once PlayStation exclusive has become increasingly accessible.

The first big step was branching out to Xbox, but that move came along with the jump towards new gen technology.

MLB The Show 20 was a PS4 exclusive, but MLB The Show 21 came to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.

MLB The Show 22 continued that trend by jumping to Nintendo Switch, and hopes were high about a PC release this year.

BIG REVEALS: The cover athlete and editions are just weeks away

Unfortunately, the absence of a PC rating likely means that MLB The Show 24 is the earliest fans might be able to play this franchise on Windows.

It's always possible that final details are being sorted, but at this point PC fans may want to temper their expectations for MLB The Show 23.

It's unclear when the industry will collectively decide to stop publishing annual releases on past gen tech, but it looks like MLB The Show 23 won't be the first to wave goodbye to PS4 and Xbox One.

Official confirmation of platforms, pricing, pre order details and more should arrive when the title is formally announced in late January or early February 2023.
