With the excitement building for MLB The Show 25, many fans are eagerly awaiting news of the release date. Based on previous releases, we can make some educated guesses about when the game will drop and what players can expect from early access and the official launch.

Speculated Release Dates for MLB The Show 25

MLB The Show 25 is likely to follow a similar release pattern to previous years. Last year, MLB The Show 24 launched with early access on Friday, March 15th, 2024, at midnight Eastern Time for those who purchased premium editions. The official release for the basic version followed on Tuesday, March 19th, 2024.

However, with St. Patrick’s Day falling on Monday, March 17th, 2025, the developers may avoid releasing the game close to that weekend, as many younger players (the game’s key demographic) may be preoccupied with celebrations.

Early Access and Official Release Dates

Our current speculation is as follows:

  • Early Access Release: Friday, March 21st, 2025, at midnight Eastern for premium editions.
  • Official Release: Tuesday, March 25th, 2025, at midnight Eastern for basic edition.

These dates would fit the traditional release window while avoiding conflict with St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. Be sure to stay tuned for official announcements from San Diego Studio as we approach the launch window.
