MLB The Show also further establishes major sports games as a key part of the Xbox Game Pass value proposition. Sony's recent "Play From Home" initiative and the PlayStation Plus Collection have opened up access to some Sony-published titles recently, but these, too, have revolved around dated software. Then again, PlayStation Now has famously struggled to compare to Game Pass' "day one" bluster for a while now, especially when it comes to first-party software.
