The latest patch for MLB The Show 23 is now available across all platforms. The update brings improvements and changes to various game modes and introduces new additions to the game.
This update addresses several issues in Diamond Dynasty, such as ensuring the checkbox for completed goals in Mini Seasons now shows a green checkmark instead of a red X. Other changes include CPU-controlled Mini Seasons teams no longer wearing their home uniforms in every game and the correct logos now displayed in the Mini Season load-in screen. A fix has been implemented for the error message, “Your opponent has an invalid roster,” when trying to play a game in Mini Seasons.
Several fixes have been made for Co-op and Online Head-to-Head games, such as resolving an issue causing a player’s Ranked rating to reset once it reached 1,000. The update also addresses various hang-ups that could occur due to the specific timing of button inputs and intentional methods of freezing the game. The complete patch notes can be found below:
