The Jackie Robinson Editions for MLB The Show 21 have been revealed

For many Australians, the name Jackie Robinson might not mean a lot, but for those in America, especially those who are black, it means a lot. The first African American player in the Majors, Jackie made a massive impact in the sport of baseball and stride for equality.

That is why MLB The Show 21 have chosen to use this inspirational player as the cover of their Deluxe version of the game and in the states, for every copy of the Collector’s Edition sold, a $1 will be donated to the Jackie Robinson Foundation.

There are two versions available for the Collectors Editions, the Jackie Robinson Edition and the Digital Deluxe. What is important to note is that if you buy either of these editions for the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, you can upgrade to the next gen platforms for free, the standard edition of the game, does not allow for this.

The Jackie Robinson Edition includes:

  • MLB The Show 21

  • Four days’ early access.

  • Jackie Robinson bat skin.

  • 1 Diamond Choice pack.

  • 2 Gold Choice packs.

  • 1 Ballplayer Equipment pack.

  • 10 The Show packs. 10K Stubs

The Digital Deluxe Edition includes:

  • MLB The Show 21

  • Four days' early access

  • Jackie Robinson bat skin.

  • 2 Diamond Choice packs.

  • 5 Gold Choice packs.

  • 1 Ballplayer Equipment pack.

  • 10 The Show packs. 25K Stubs

There is also a retail release in the USA, but there is no word on that coming here, in fact the last game to release here was MLB The Show 18, so it has been a while.
