How To Earn MLB The Show 26 RTTS Tokens

In MLB The Show 26 , tokens are the primary currency for upgrading your player's attributes and perks in Road to the Show (RTTS). This progression system, which debuted in the '25 edition, continues to be the main way to improve your ballplayer's skills.

How to Earn Tokens

You earn tokens through gameplay performance and milestones:

• Gameplay Achievements: Performing well in games (e.g., hitting home runs, throwing strikeouts) earns you tokens.
• Milestones: Reaching certain career or season goals provides larger token rewards.
• XP Progression: Progressing through your player's archetype and general XP programs can grant token rewards.
• Double XP Events: These are prime opportunities to earn tokens at a faster rate.

How to Use Tokens

To spend your earned tokens, navigate to the Tools menu at the top right of the main RTTS screen.

• Attribute Upgrades: You can manually assign tokens to increase specific ratings like Power, Contact, Velocity, or Fielding.
• Perk Upgrades: Perks are upgradeable abilities that provide situational boosts. You use tokens on the Perks Screen to level these up once you have unlocked them.

Tips for Efficient Progression

• Strategic Allocation: For pitchers, focus on core stats like Per/9s (H/9, K/9) and your primary pitch's velocity and control.
• Training Sessions: Use these sessions for stats that are "expensive" to upgrade via tokens, allowing you to save your tokens for other areas.
• Difficulty Settings: Tokens are generally not tied to difficulty. Some players lower the difficulty to perform better and amass tokens more quickly before raising it back up for a challenge.
• Two-Way Players: Creating a two-way player (pitcher/hitter) offers more opportunities to earn tokens due to increased overall game involvement.
