MLB The Show 26: PS5 Platinum Guide

MLB The Show 26

PS5

In MLB The Show 26, split Road to the Show from Diamond Quest. The draft depends on the career you build, while the cart trophy needs two perks on one board; purchases from separate runs will not add up. Set aside two games for the seven-hit rally and the single GOAT difficulty objective.

A roadmap for the 26 base PS5 trophies. Diamond Quest and Storylines have connection requirements distinct from co-op.

  • Required difficulty: GOAT for one hit or strikeout; no need to keep it for the entire career.
  • Connection: Internet for Diamond Dynasty and Storylines. The co-op trophy also accepts local play.
  • Career decisions: Track your draft position and the college decision.

Improve your projection before the draft

Consider a starting pitcher in Road to the Show. Playing amateur games lets you build results and spend tokens on attributes that scouts evaluate. Take part in combine drills and check your projection between games. Top 10 is not the first overall pick. For Moving Up the Board, choose college and compare your stock before and after, in a second career if needed.

  • Check the actual draft result rather than just the scouting projection.

Plan equipment and 50 Show Tokens

For I Don’t Need It, hold 50 Show Tokens at once. If you are spending them to improve draft stock, save them later or use a separate career rather than weakening your amateur run. For Suit Up, check every equipment slot, not just batting gear. Pick a training mini-game you are comfortable with and practise it until you earn Gold.

  • Reach a balance of 50 before spending any more tokens.

Buy two perks on one Diamond Quest board

Connect to Diamond Dynasty and choose an available Diamond Quest map. Work through challenges and tiles to collect board currency. At Coach’s Cart, buy two perks during the same run for Flush. Continue to the stadiums and finish the map for Gone Questing. Choose a difficulty you can manage: the trophy is for completing a run rather than receiving a particular card rarity.

  • Verify both perk purchases before leaving the board and finish the run.

Set up a seven-hit inning

Enter your batting half of an inning while trailing and collect seven hits before the third out. Three and five are the other thresholds in the same series, so keep batting when the earlier notifications appear. Walks and errors can extend an inning but are not hits. Set GOAT in a different game and record a hit or strikeout, then restore your usual settings once the trophy registers.

  • Start the inning trailing and count only hits shown in the scorebook.

Finish Storylines and set your opener

Complete four Negro Leagues Storylines from the 2026 game, not four isolated Moments. In Franchise, open the rotation and assign an opener for a Bullpen Game, then check Horses in the Pen. Baseball is Better Together can be earned in couch co-op with a second controller. Choose online co-op only if you prefer it and have the required access.

  • Check off four complete Storylines, an assigned opener and a played co-op game.

Frequently asked questions

Must I win a ranked match?

The base list does not require a ranked win. Diamond Quest is a single-player route inside Diamond Dynasty, and the co-op trophy accepts local multiplayer.

Do I need paid Stubs?

No. Buy Coach’s Cart perks with currency earned on the board. Road to the Show Tokens are tracked separately.

Does college guarantee the first pick?

No. The college trophy needs improved stock, while the draft trophy needs the actual first pick. Check the scouts and allow for a fresh career if one result is missing.
