MLB The Show 23’s first server maintenance set to take place before full release

The developers made the official post on March 27 to inform the public about the finer details. According to this, the maintenance will commence at 4 am PT/7 am ET, resulting in server downtime.

The developers have also requested the community to finish matches before the maintenance begins. It will likely affect all game modes, including Diamond Dynasty.

There’s no clarity about when the maintenance and server downtime will end. As long as it continues, players won’t be able to access MLB The Show 23. The game’s full release is scheduled for March 28 at 12 am ET. Given that this is the last server maintenance before the full release, it could be a while before players can resume their games.

The global release will be made available on all consoles, including the old-gen PlayStation and Xbox. It will also be available as a Day One option for all Xbox Game Pass subscribers.
