發表於 : 2026年 4月 24日, 03:49
In MLB The Show 26, the game doesn’t feature any truly “hidden” trophies, as all objectives are visible from the start. However, some trophies might not be as easy to unlock or may require specific skills, strategies, or knowledge of the game. Below, I’ll walk you through some of the most interesting and challenging trophies you’ll want to keep an eye on, and provide tips on how to unlock them!
Road to the Show (Career) Trophies
These trophies are focused on your custom player's career progression, as well as upgrading their gear:
1 In Your Heart: To get drafted as the #1 overall pick, you need to maximize your performance in high school and the combine. Opt for strong performances and make key decisions to raise your draft stock.
Suit Up: Equip your player with gear for all 16 equipment slots. This can take a bit of time, but it’s necessary for this trophy.
Going Gold: Achieve a “Gold” rank in a mini-game. Choose a mini-game like the ball recognition drill, and focus on mastering the mechanics to secure that gold rank.
I Don’t Need It: Hold onto 50+ Show Tokens in your inventory. This requires patience as tokens accumulate gradually, but holding them all at once is key for this trophy.
Moving Up the Board: Choose the college route and work hard to improve your draft stock. Doing well in college and performing well in various events will ensure you move up in the rankings.
Gameplay & Skill Challenges
Here are some challenging gameplay-based trophies to unlock:
GOAT MODE: Play on GOAT difficulty and either hit or strike out. It’s tough but rewarding, and it’ll require excellent timing and pitch recognition.
Down Low... Too Slow: Use a swim move to avoid a tag. You’ll need to time your inputs correctly to successfully evade the tag while running the bases.
A Robbery!: Rob a home run at the wall. To unlock this, position your fielder correctly near the wall and jump at the right moment. Timing is crucial!
THE SHOW 2-6: Record a 2-6 out (a throw from shortstop to second base). This is a situational challenge, so be ready to pull it off during double plays or other similar situations.
Defensive Run Saved: Make a throw from the outfield to get a runner out at home. Accuracy and arm strength are key, so be sure to practice your throwing mechanics.
You're Sure They Meant Me?: Score with a runner who has 26 or lower speed. This requires strategic base running and a bit of luck in terms of how the defense handles the play.
Special Modes & Comebacks
These trophies are related to specific game modes and come from special situations:
Diamond Quest/Franchise: You’ll need to complete some unique tasks like buying two Coach’s Cart perks (Flush), finishing a Map Run (Gone Questing), or setting a bullpen game pitcher (Horses in the Pen).
NLB Historian ‘26: Complete four Negro League storylines. This is part of the new content celebrating the rich history of baseball, so take time to explore this mode.
Rally Trophies: These are based on completing specific come-from-behind challenges. For example:
The Start of Something: Get 3 hits in an inning while trailing.
Don’t Call it a Rally: Get 5 hits in an inning while trailing.
Rally Cap: Get 7 hits in an inning while trailing.
While there are no truly “hidden” trophies in MLB The Show 26, there are several tricky, situational, and skill-based objectives that might not be immediately obvious. Make sure to plan your progress and keep an eye out for these more challenging and rewarding trophies as you work toward the coveted Platinum trophy!
