How to Change Your Favorite Team
Open Profile: From the main menu, click your user avatar in the top-left corner. This opens your profile and account settings.
Access Settings: Navigate to the "Options" or "Profile Settings" tab.
Select Team: Look for the "Favorite Team" option and scroll through the list of MLB franchises until you find the one you want.
Save Changes: Confirm your selection. Your profile now reflects your chosen team across menus and dashboards.
What This Choice Affects
Changing your favorite team primarily updates how the game looks and feels for you:
Main Menu UI: Your dashboard adopts your team’s colors, logos, and stadium visuals.
Default Audio: Announcers and commentary now reference your selected team.
Quick Play: Exhibition and practice modes default to your team as the home squad.
Live Content: Widgets and news on the home screen highlight your team’s real-time stats and updates.
Rest easy—switching your favorite team is cosmetic. It does not alter your saved progress, card collections, or any stats in Diamond Dynasty, Road to the Show, or Franchise modes. You can explore your new team without losing any hard-earned progress.
Changing your favorite team is a quick way to refresh your experience in MLB The Show 26, whether you’re chasing a new challenge or just enjoying the game with a fresh perspective. With a few clicks, you’re ready to play under a new banner without worrying about your existing achievements.
