MLB The Show 22: How to Get Early Access

MLB The Show 22 is almost here, and there's an early access period that allows die-hard fans to get a head start and jump in before the rest of the world. Whether you're new to the series and want to try it out on Xbox or Nintendo Switch for the first time, or you're a seasoned veteran who plays it every year on PlayStation, you can gain early access before the official release. It's only a few days early, but if you can't wait to blast those home runs, here's how to get a head start on MLB The Show 22 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

How to Get Early Access for MLB The Show 22

You must acquire the MVP Edition or Digital Deluxe Edition of MLB The Show 22 in order to play the game early. The former costs $85 and is accessible solely on PlayStation and Xbox systems, whilst the latter costs $100 and is available on all platforms. Each package comes with digital bonuses and goodies, but the big attraction is four days of early access starting April 1.

If you already have Xbox Game Pass, you can get a $50 Xbox Game Pass Early Access Bundle. It does exactly what it says on the tin, allowing you to get a head start on the game before its official release on April 5. You don't get to keep the game, so you're just paying $50 to get a head start. It's not a big deal, but it's something to consider.
