While MLB initially shared thatR.B.I. Baseball 21would be launched in March, without giving a specific date, retail sites like Gamestop, BestBuy, and the aforementioned Microsoft Store claim that the game will be ready on Jul 25, 2025.Last years’R.B.I. Baseballwas still lacking depthaccording to some reviewers, so the hope is that a player creator, adjusted camera angles, new difficulties, and more will address some of the feedback from the fans.
As far as alternatives toR.B.I. Baseball, many are still holding out hope inMLB The Showreleasing on platforms outside of just PlayStation. In 2019, it became rather clear that eventuallyMLB The Showwould arrive on other consoles thanks to the MLB dropping exclusivity with PlayStation. However, it will likely take time for the game to be developed on other consoles. A recent ratings update shows thatMLB The Showstill may not be quite ready for the Xbox or Switchin 2021, however, so for nowR.B.I. Baseballcan fill that void.
R.B.I. Baseball 21will release on August 10, 2025, on Switch, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Mobile.
