    If you have 20 then no need for 21. Can only create a stadium on the PS5 version. Very disappointing.

    I don't like the look of the game The view is smaller and batting is different and more difficult to hit home runs. I like 2019 best.

    Same game as previous The Show releases with an updated roster. Missing some of the features from past games. It's okay.

    My son inserted the disc in his ps4 and it deleted all of his games. He was so disappointed that he actually cried. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I'm not sure if he is the only one to experience this, I can only speak of his experience.

    When creating a player It says my last name is inappropriate This is ridiculous It is Hoerning If it was inappropriate who cares its my game. If this problem isn't corrected I will never purchase another MLB the Show game again!
