If fan reports prove accurate, MLB The Show could be making another adjustment in its gameplay related to stadium elevation for its upcoming title, MLB The Show 25. Known for its realistic baseball gaming experience, MLB The Show is a long-running series from San Diego Studio and Sony that debuted on the PlayStation 2 and PSP in 2006. Since then, a new installment has been released annually, amassing 19 main titles to date. With the release of MLB The Show 25 slated for 2025, fans can expect a fresh take on the formula that will make this edition stand out.

Before the launch of MLB The Show 25, the global release times have been disclosed, starting with early access on March 14, 2025, followed by the main release on March 18, 2025. Two versions will be available for purchase: a Standard Edition and a Digital Deluxe Edition. The latter comes packed with an array of extras including different packs, a Cover Athlete Bat Skin, and a Double Daily Rewards subscription.

A screenshot from Twitter by user MillsTwitch was uploaded to the MLB The Show subreddit on Reddit. In this post, it was mentioned that stadium elevations in MLB The Show 25 might only go up to 3,000 feet, but some fans were uncertain about its accuracy. However, streamer MillsTwitch expressed certainty that the stadiums had actually been lowered in elevation, and noted that 3,000 feet was the highest possible elevation for any stadium. This detail could be one of several changes coming to MLB The Show 25, including the addition of a first-person mode for a more immersive experience.

MLB The Show 25’s Stadium Elevation May Be Limited to 3,000 Feet

Fans of MLB The Show 25 are brimming with anticipation, particularly regarding the modifications to the online-focused Diamond Dynasty mode that fans have been asking for. However, some are worried that the reduced stadium elevation limit could stifle their creative flair. A Reddit user suggested that during a live stream, developers may have already hinted at lowering the elevation from 5,000 to 3,000 in three stadiums only.

Apart from the numerous gameplay adjustments in MLB The Show 25, this year marks a shift in tradition as multiple players are featured on the cover. Specifically, Elly De La Cruz of the Cincinnati Reds, Gunnar Henderson from the Baltimore Orioles, and Paul Skenes of the Pittsburgh Pirates will be prominently displayed. Interestingly, MLB The Show 25 will be the first installment in four years that won’t be accessible through any subscription service at launch, and it won’t be playable on PlayStation 4 consoles, unlike its previous versions.
