The Show 23 features Season 1 of The Negro Leagues, where you play out some of the most spectacular careers in baseball’s history, complete with classic stadiums, uniforms, and matchups. Celebrate these players’ amazing stories and impact on baseball while earning exclusive and highly desirable Diamond Dynasty items along the way!

There are several exciting changes and additions for Diamond Dynasty fans this year! Build your squad around attribute-boosting Hitting & Pitching Captains, and select a Designated Hitter or Two-Way Cards who can pitch and hit with the best. Sets & Seasons means more, better cards to collect (especially early in the season), and Mini-Seasons is back for its second season with more content, more features, and more ways to play. Finally, thanks to our new Unlimited Program Rewards, you can keep playing and never stop getting rewarded for your time.

With the MLB the Show Companion App's new Face Scan feature, with an internet connection, you can use your phone to create a player with your likeness! Our dynamic Challenges reward you with game-altering perks aligned with your player’s archetype, and you can improve your player outside the game with the newly revamped On-Field Training system. We’ve also redesigned the HUD, simplified player progress visuals, and streamlined transitions from Ballplayer to RTTS.

Our CBA updates include a new Postseason format, balanced schedules, and a competitive balance tax. We have also revamped the Draft experience with new presentations, improved scouting, and expanded system logic.

Are you struggling to hit a specific pitcher? This year’s Custom Practice gives you unparalleled control over your batting practice. Set the exact percentages you want to see each pitch, acclimate your eye to catch those pitches in a simulation of real-life uncertainty, and step back into the online arena ready to conquer all comers!
