How to earn XP
For those new to MLB The Show 22, we should note that there are many ways to earn XP. Players can play the various game modes in MLB The Show 22 and earn XP after each game, including Road to the Show, Diamond Dynasty, Franchise, and even March to October. Daily and Featured Program Moments have also been added for this program. Daily Moments offer a 3,000 XP boost, while the Featured ones give the same amount for each completed. Plus, users also get a boost for winning games in the Legends of the Franchise event.
Users can also gain XP by completing the Missions that SDS has inserted into this program. Users can use the boss cards obtained from past programs (i.e. Field of Dreams, Dog Days of Summer, Back to Old School) and grind to get PXP Points. Each of the bosses from the last three has PXP Missions, and players will receive 5,000 XP for completing each one.

Additionally, MLB The Show has also added in a new conquest, entitled the Legends of the Franchise EAST. Users can claim 40,000 XP just for completing it. Be on the lookout for additional Legends of the Franchise WEST and CENTRAL conquests, player programs, and any Showdowns.
Also, users can claim 15,000 XP for obtaining Lightning Mookie Betts and the Retro Finest Roberto Clemente. If you have not claimed an XP boost from any of the four Extreme bosses yet, 30,000 XP is waiting for each of the four via collections.
This program will last three weeks. It will end on October 7.
