MLB The Show 25 to Overhaul Diamond Dynasty and Introduce Key Updates

Sony San Diego announces the removal of controversial Sets and Seasons feature, alongside improvements to Franchise and Road to the Show modes.

A new loyalty rewards system, 'Now & Later' packs, will allow MLB The Show 24 players to earn items that transfer to MLB The Show 25 upon its release in spring 2025.
Franchise Mode will see updates, including improved trade evaluation metrics and a revamped offseason experience, while Road to the Show promises deeper player progression and customization.
Gameplay enhancements will include expanded quick-time events, improved defensive AI, and refined pathing for more engaging in-game moments.
