The deal allows for first parties to produce their own MLB games (hence why Sony can still put one out every year), but unless Microsoft publishes a new baseball series, you're stuck with 2K. |
That deal expires at the end of this upcoming season, and 2K hasn't renewed it. If I recall correctly recently they stated they won't or at least haven't given intentions in their comments to do so. Lots of signs are pointing to EA being able to make a baseball game for the next season, and there some anticipation that EA is preparing to do so. Their Facebook game World Series Superstars on Facebook could be used as a hint.
Also the creative director from MLB The Show has recently moved over the EA. Although he's currently an added creative director to the Madden series.
