Derek Jeter Named Cover Athlete Of MLB The Show 23 Collector's Edition

MLB The Show 23 will be getting Derek Jeter as the cover athlete for the Collector's Edition, which comes with a ton of bonus gear.


Sony Interactive Entertainment and San Diego Studio revealed Derek Jeter will be the MLB The Show 23 Collector's Edition cover athlete. Technically, Jeter did the honors of revealing it himself when he visited The Tonight Show last night, as he showed off the cover and the look of his character in the game and chatted about being a video game character people look forward to playing as. As you can see from the artwork here, they're going for more of a classic artistic approach to his appearance, celebrating all of the years and the work he put into his time with the Yankees. We got more info below on what's in this edition, as well as his appearance on the show.
