MLB The Show 23 reveals the athlete on the cover of the Collector's Edition
As is tradition, PlayStation Studios are drip feeding information on MLB The Show 23, this time its the reveal of the cover star for the Collector’s Edition. The star is Derek Jeter, who spent 20 years playing in the Majors and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2020 with a 99.75% Yes vote.
“Derek Jeter needed an epic cover, and we wanted to show him in a new light. With that in mind we tasked visual artist Sanford Greene to present Derek in a fresh new perspective. Derek’s career as a Yankee is larger than life and his cover literally has him jumping out of Yankee Stadium. Can you spot all the Easter eggs in the cover? ”
Of course, they didn’t just reveal the star on the cover and call it a day, they also detailed what is included in the editions. Before we get into details though, the Captain Edition, which comes with a MLB The Show 23 branded hat, is not available in Australia, so don’t get hyped up for it.
