Another potential leak has made its way to Reddit, showing that there may also be a Jackie Robinson special edition version of MLB The Show 21, reportedly available on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X / S and Xbox One. Unfortunately, there is no mention of PC or Nintendo Switch.
The Jackie Robinson Edition leak also reveals that the game is scheduled to release on April 20, 2021, with an Early Access Weekend starting April 16.
Following these leaks, it has been announced that the official MLB The Show 2021 cover reveal will take place on Hot Ones tomorrow, Feb. 1. So it seems we don’t have to wait long to learn the truth.

In 2019, it was confirmed that MLB The Show would be making its way to other platforms as early as 2021, and it looks like this might just be the year that these great games can be played by many more people.
