MLB The Show 24 has officially been released to the masses, but some players are already experiencing various bugs and glitches which are causing the game to frequently crash. The crashes have been frequent and consistent to the point where many players reportedly can't access one of MLB The Show 24's popular modes altogether.
Released on March 19, MLB The Show 24 is the latest installment of the annual baseball sim series from San Diego Studio. Originally a PlayStation-exclusive franchise for roughly 20 years, MLB The Show 21 marked the first time the series became available on other home consoles. The newest entry also holds a major first for the franchise, as MLB The Show 24 features the first female player in its history. The series is also known for its graphical fidelity and attention to detail, something more easily achieved on some consoles than others.
Since MLB The Show 24's release just days ago, online forum posts have erupted with many playing on Switch claiming the game keeps repeatedly crashing for them, as reported by VGC. Dozens of comments such as “I legit can’t play any mode” from Reddit user burnsy2191 have been continuously popping up online, with players stating the title has crashed abruptly in the middle of a game, with troubleshooting methods proving to be futile. Based on online comments, the Switch version seems to particularly struggle with MLB The Show 24's Diamond Dynasty, one of the game's most popular modes.
Sports sim titles dealing with bugs and glitches at launch seems to be a fairly common issue, with patches rolled out within the first few weeks and months of any major video game's launch to address issues that have arisen. Take the Madden NFL series for example, where a viral Madden NFL 23 glitch added skyscrapers to the middle of the football field. While sometimes humorous, rampant bugs or glitches can severely negatively impact someone's gameplay experience, or even render the game largely unplayable, as owners of the Switch version of MLB The Show 24 are finding out.
The Switch unfortunately has a history of inferior versions of games when compared to its more powerful competitors. Last year, Mortal Kombat 1's appearance on Switch went viral for not only its glitchy nature and poor frame rate, but for its visuals being significantly worse in appearance compared to its Xbox Series X and PS5 counterparts. While there isn't an estimate on when a fix is coming for the Switch version of MLB The Show 24, a developer has replied on the game's community forum that the issues are being actively worked on.

MLB: The Show 24 just got its update for the opening day of baseball season, and the patch briefly broke the game so bad that entire teams got shuffled into big head mode.
Baseball season has officially begun: It’s opening day for Major League Baseball. MLB The Show 24, which was released on March 15, celebrated the milestone with an update that went live Thursday morning. It’s, uh, not going well. People on social media and in forums are reporting major issues that make the game unplayable — like frequent crashing and freezing. And then there’s the bugs that are just downright silly, like one particularly funny one that’s causing some players to have big heads and little bodies.
One of the most popular ways to play is the card-collecting Diamond Dynasty mode, which puts players in the driver's seat of crafting their dream baseball team from current and past athletes. By collecting cards, much like a traditional trading card game, people collect not only virtual cards but the ability to add that player to their team. For this year's version of the game, many changes have been made to the format based on feedback gained after played around with adding new features which were not quite polished but showed potential.
With the Vision Pro finally available, many consumers are curious about Apple’s AR/VR headset and the apps that come with it. While some are from companies you recognize — Disney+, Max, TikTok, Zoom, Reddit and others — there are plenty of independent developers that launched visionOS-optimized apps.

MLB The Show 24 may not be the best-looking sports game on the market anymore, but San Diego Studio continues to lead the field by pushing the boundaries of the genre overall. This year’s release may feel largely familiar when you’re at the plate, but the expansion of narrative-based experiences in the Storylines section demonstrates how the first-party developer is evolving elsewhere.
