The Yolk's On You: A Hilariously Handy Guide to Earning Eggs in MLB The Show 23
Ah, MLB The Show 23. The crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd, and... the burning desire to collect virtual eggs? You heard that right, folks. This year, the developers decided to scramble our expectations with a hidden egg hunt. But fear not, fellow baseball fanatics! This guide will help you gather those elusive ovals faster than you can say "eggcellent."
Why Eggs, You Ask? Don't Ask Me, I'm Not a Poultry Scholar
Look, the reasons for the eggs are beyond the realm of this humble guide. Maybe it's a metaphor for the fragility of a pitcher's ego after you launch a three-run bomb. Maybe it's a tribute to the classic baseball snack, the egg salad sandwich (though personally, I'm a nachos kinda guy). Whatever the reason, those eggs unlock sweet rewards, so let's get cracking!
Finding Those Fugitive Fowls: A Rundown of Egg-cellent Challenges
There are nine eggs to be found, each with its own quirky little challenge. Here's a breakdown to get you yolking:
- The Momentous Egg: This one's easy. Head over to the Moments menu and complete the aptly named "The Great Egg Hunt" moments. It's like they were egg-specting you!
- The Globetrotting Egg: Turns out, eggs love to travel! Win a game against four teams from different continents. Mini Seasons is your best bet here.
- The Shell-Shocked Egg: Feeling the pressure? This egg wants none of it. Play a ranked game and prove your mettle (or just hope your opponent disconnects – hey, I never said these were noble pursuits).
- The Eggshell-igent Egg: This brainy egg wants you to, well, use your brain (or at least walk a lot). Walk five times in any game mode. Just remember, base stealing is encouraged, tripping over your own shoelaces is not.
- The Program Egg: This egg is all about player development (and by development, we mean using cards with the Egg Hunt Program tag). Earn 1,000 XP with these cards and watch that egg hatch!
- The Feathered-Friend Egg: This egg is a fan of specific teams (probably because they taste better?). Beat the Blue Jays, Cardinals, or Orioles in a Play vs CPU game on any difficulty (but hey, nine innings or bust!).
- The Eventful Egg: This egg thrives on chaos (or maybe just enjoys a good game). Play an Events game and this little yoker will be yours.
Bonus Yolk: Don't Be a Chicken, There Might Be More!
These are just the confirmed eggs. There might be more lurking in the game, waiting for some intrepid player to discover them. Keep your eyes peeled, folks!
So there you have it! With this guide, you'll be an egg-spert in no time. Now get out there, crack some baseballs, and hatch those virtual eggs! Just remember, if you see a giant omelette rolling around the stadium, that's probably not part of the game.
