    The Standard Edition has Ernie Clement on it (Blue Jays player). If I buy that iteration of the game, will the game splash screen showcase Ernie Clement or Aaron Judge? I'm not a fan of the Yankees (no offense to any Yankees fans out there), so I'd rather see a neutral team's player when I boot up the game.

    @iMidevilChaos_MLBTS the Ernie cover is the splash screen but it’s temporary.

    @Onix_Savage22_PSN I don't follow. What do you mean it's temporary?

    They'll only promote him for a short time. They'll likely highlight another player before the playoffs, then they'll go to the original pick, Aaron Judge. The only real choice is to get a physical disc/case and print a Clement cover.

    @Jacob151167_XBL What are you talking about??? I'm talking about the Splashscreen of the Standard Edition when you buy THAT one vs the Aaron Judge edition.

    Here is an example of a splash screen (the one with Vladdy from MLB 2024):

    Exactly what @jacob151167_xbl and @onix_savage22_psn said, it's temporary for the Ernie Clement splash screen, eventually they'll go back to Judge the real cover athlete of the game. Clement is the cover takeover player then it'll go back to Judge. Doesn't matter what edition you get duluex or standard, it'll be Clement then eventually go back to Judge

    @sbchamps17_NSW Bro, how does this make any sense when answering the question I asked, "The only real choice is to get a physical disc/case and print a Clement cover."? I've never asked about the cover art in any capacity. The cover athlete is (theoretically) going to appear at the boot up screen, true. BUT what does obtaining a physical copy have to do with my question???

    Also, if you take a look at MLB 21, 22, 23, 24 etc., you'll see that some of the cover athletes or art actually differ from one edition to the next. They haven't changed those to Vladdy, Jazz Chisholm Jr. or Tatis Jr.. And so, for those WITH a different cover athletes, my question simply is: Is the Splash Screen (for MLB 26) going to be Ernie Clement OR Aaron Judge.

    My question isn't complicated, but you're all focusing on the cover art of the premium versions. While I'm asking whether the actual Splash Screen FROM the game will be Ernie Clement when it comes to the Standard Edition, OR will it be Aaron Judge which is NOT on the Standard Edition cover? They will NOT be removing Ernie Clement as a cover athlete, otherwise they would have done so for EVERY single iteration of the games I mentioned. And they haven't!

    Also, Cover Art does NOT equal Splash Screen. In theory, the Splash Screen could be (in this case) Ernie Clement OR Aaron Judge, DESPITE what you see on the cover for the STANDARD Edition.

    Are you sure the Clement isnt the cover for the Canadian version of the game?
