MLB The Show 21 is thanking players for their support and patience as the title has faced struggles with servers and bugs since launch.
Here's everything you need to know about how to redeem these free rewards and how long you have before they leave MLB The Show 21.
Latest - Three days for bundle and Camo Pack
MLB The Show 21 players need to make sure not to run out of time, because the massive Thank You Bundle is almost gone and there's another free reward waiting for them.
Players can also redeem a free Camo Pack from the shop in the same way they'd redeem the Thank You Bundle, and that'll give players some free Diamond tier equipment.
If you don't care to use the equipment for your Ballplayer or already have something better, quicksell the items to score a few thousand Stubs that can be used elsewhere.
This new Camo Pack and the Thank You Bundle are set to expire on Monday, May 17, 2021 at approximately 11am PT, so players have just three days left to snag those free rewards for MLB The Show 21.
MLB The Show 21 Thank You Bundle
As revealed in a stream hyping the release of the 2nd Inning Program, MLB The Show 21 is adding a huge Thank You Bundle available free for all players.
This bundle is packed with rewards for Diamond Dynasty, but it's also got a Diamond Ballplayer Pack which will be a big help to anyone working their way through Road to the Show.
Developers explained in the reveal that this is in appreciation of the fan response since MLB The Show 21 launched, but it's likely also an apology for the bugs and server issues that have been happening in recent weeks.
They reiterated in the stream that server stability and in-game quality is their top priority right now, and reassured players they're working hard to continue updating and improving things.
Start & Expiration Date
If players want to redeem their rewards for MLB The Show 21, there's only a limited 10-day window to do so and here's exactly when the Thank You Bundle will leave Diamond Dynasty.
Start Date: Friday, May 7, 2021 at Noon PT (2pm CT/3pm ET)
Expiration Date: Monday, May 17, 2021 at Noon PT (2pm CT/3pm ET)
Don't wait too long, this is a bundle so jam-packed you'll be kicking yourself if you miss out on it.
Thank You Bundle Rewards
All of the following rewards are provided to players who redeem the Thank You Bundle for MLB The Show 21:
- One 42 Series Diamond Choice Pack
- One Diamond Ballplayer Choice Pack
- 10 Team Affinity Season 1 Showdown Vouchers
- 5 The Show Packs
- 10,000 Stubs
Packs
The two biggest inclusions here are the 42 Series Diamond Choice Pack and the Diamond Ballplayer Choice Pack, both of which have major rewards.
If you're struggling to choose someone in your 42 Series Diamond Choice Pack, check out our guide to all the options and see who is your best pick.
Even if you don't play Diamond Dynasty, the Diamond Ballplayer Choice Pack is a great boon for Road to the Show, so make sure to pop that one open.
The Show Packs are standard and have relatively random options, but there's always a chance you could snag an ultra-powerful card like Mike Trout from one of the packs.
Stubs
On top of the pack rewards you receive in the Thank You Bundle, you'll get 10,000 Stubs to use in the Community Market or to purchase packs.
While it can be tempting to use them on packs, the best bet is to save your stubs and seek out specific players to complete collections or fill a weak position in your Diamond Dynasty squad.
How to redeem
If you're not sure how to redeem the Thank You Bundle in MLB The Show 21, the good news is that it's not a complicated process.
The first thing you'll need to do is launch the game, make sure you're connected to the internet (and hope the servers are working), then head into Diamond Dynasty.
From there, select Shop, Packs, and Buy Packs. Once in, you'll be able to "purchase" the Thank You Bundle in the top left, but it's free and won't cost you anything.
Once you've redeemed it, you can open all your packs right away or wait and do that later.
