This will be not encouraging news for those fans who were highly anticipating the launch of the game on PC. This year the developers have announced that MLB The Show 25 will not be available on PC, nor will it be available on any gaming subscription platform at the time of release.

This means that the game will also not be available on Xbox Game Pass, which was the sole method to play the game on PC in previous years. The announcement was made by Sony San Diego earlier this year in January. So, the only way to play the game as of now is to procure one of three current generation consoles.

This will mark the first time that the cover of the video game will involve three budding superstars of the major league. The three ballplayers on the cover of MLB The Show 25 are: Pirates ace Paul Skenes, Reds speedster Elly De La Cruz, and Orioles lefty slugger Gunnar Henderson.

Reflecting on the same, the Global Marketing Group manager of the game, Mr. Todd Liss said:

"MLB is entering this dynamic era, with electric young talent coming up to The Show and changing the way the game is played. We wanted to tell the story of this era by highlighting three of the most exciting young players in the world right now: Elly, Gunnar and Paul."
