The first post-launch update for MLB The Show 23 has now been released across Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch platforms. Following its arrival last week, the latest installment in PlayStation's long-running baseball series has been getting a fair amount of praise from both critics and fans. Now, developer San Diego Studio is looking to make that experience much more improved through the release of a new patch. For the most part, all that "Update 2" for MLB The Show 23 looks to do is fix a number of bugs and other miscellaneous problems that have been discovered in the game since release. These fixes have come to virtually every game mode in MLB The Show 23 including Road to the Show, Diamond Dynasty, and Storylines. Since this is just an update focused on solutions of this type, San Diego Studio has stressed that no gameplay tweaks have been implemented in MLB The Show 23 with this patch. These changes will surely end up arriving in future updates for the title, though. You can find the full patch notes for today's new MLB The Show 23 update attached below. GENERAL
