MLB The Show 22, the seventeenth installment in the MLB The Show 2K series, has been officially released on 5th April 2022. But the early access to the game was available from 1st April for Xbox and PlayStation Game Pass users. It is the first time that an MLB series video game has been released on Nintendo Switch. PlayStation and Xbox were the platforms where these games were usually released, but the developers have changed the tradition and added a new platform this time.
Undoubtedly, MLB The Show 2k series is one of the most popular baseball video game series worldwide, and it is mainly because of its realistic gameplay experience. But players who have purchased the game on Game Pass during the Early Access period have complained about the mini-seasons not working properly and the disappearance of stubs and rewards. The more players played the game, the more complaints of bugs and errors were coming.
Bugs and errors are nothing new in online video games. Every game show bugs, errors, and glitches. The only difference is some games show less bugs and errors than others, but it is almost impossible to find a game that has never shown a single error or glitch. In the case of MLB The Show 22, players were complaining that the Mini-seasons are not recording their winnings properly; even after they win a match, the game says they have lost the match, or the match is unfinished. Also, some have complained that after they open a pack and take the items in their inventory, the items automatically disappear after some time without any way to regain them. Some players have complained about failing to link their accounts to various consoles. Linking an account is an essential thing to do, and most probably, it’s a server issue.
Finally, on 5th April, the developers recognized these issues and said they are aware of all the complaints and they are working to fix the issues as soon as possible. They also thanked the players for being with them and supporting the game despite these bugs and errors. They have promised to run their servers as efficiently as possible so that the players get a smooth and enjoyable gameplay experience. They even provide a link to register any other glitches or errors players face in the future.
That’s all the developers have said until now. Though things haven’t yet been fixed, we hope they will fix it soon. Since we can’t fix these issues ourselves, we have to wait for the developers to fix them.
