Season 3 content

The major change coming into season 3, is that players won't be able to use Set 1 cards in most game modes of Diamond Dynasty. So, players will need to build their Diamond Dynasty squad around Set 2, Set 3, and Core Set cards.

The mode that will be most affected by this is ranked. However, some events, specific Mini Season challenges, and Conquest Maps will also be affected by this rule.

This will force some players to say goodbye to their superstar pitcher or hitter. Players will need to try out new cards and rebuild their squads.

However, a new feature called Wild Card player slot allows players to use one of their Set 1 cards. So, players can still choose their best card from Set 1 and incorporate it into their new squad.

In a way, these changes make MLB The Show 23 feel fresh. According to the MLB The Show 23 developers, that was exactly the goal. As they said, these changes were made to "keep squads fierce and competition fresh".

Season 3 will also introduce plenty of great cards, so players shouldn't have a problem replacing their Set 1 superstars.

A new Team Affinity will also come out on 7 July. It will introduce new captains players can use to build their team around. It's expected new Conquest maps will also be added to the game.

More programs will likely make their way into MLB The Show 23 upon the release of season 3. We will update this article as soon as we have more information about them. So, make sure to check this article regularly.
