As was the case with the last three series entries, the standard edition of MLB The Show 24 will be included with Xbox Game Pass on day one.

The Collector’s Edition of MLB The Show 24 will be revealed on February 6.

Sony previously said the decision to put its internally-developed baseball series on Game Pass was made by license holder the MLB.

The PlayStation maker will stream a new State of Play presentation this Wednesday.

The 40-minute show will feature over 15 upcoming games, including PS5 titles Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin.
