Just a few days after the completion of the May Monthly Awards program, the June set has now begun to roll out in MLB The Show 22. This program will look a lot like the previous two Monthly Awards programs, as this one includes a three-stage reward path with Moments, Missions, Collections, and two new Lightning rewards. This month’s Lightning player is Astros DH/outfielder Yordan Alvarez, and this program also includes a rewind 96 OVR player item of current Red Sox pitcher and former White Sox ace Chris Sale.

How to complete June Monthly Awards Program guide

The June Monthly Awards Program guide is split up into stages. This is quite similar to the ones that went live in April and May.

In order to make progress in the stages, users must complete a number of Moments, Missions, and Collections. Users must start with the Topps Now Moments, and as of 2022, these have been integrated into the Monthly Awards programs. Also, we should note that until those Topps Now players are acquired, users will not be able to move on to Stages 2 & 3.

Now that the Monthly Awards players have been added to MLB The Show 22, users can complete the additional Moments, Missions, and Collections for all three Stages. These include Moments with the Monthly Awards cards, to completing collections and acquiring PXP Points with the Monthly Awards items.

Here’s a look at the tasks that need to be done, sorted by stage:

Stage 1

Complete Topps Now Moments (2 pts. each – 26 Moments in total)
Complete June Topps Now Collection (16 cards needed – 13 pts.)

Players will not be able to move on until the Topps Now moments have been completed, and all the cards for the June collection have been added and claimed.

Stage 2

Complete June Monthly Awards Moments (3 pts. each – 11 Moments in total)
Complete Required June Monthly Awards Collection (5 cards needed – 15 pts.)
Complete Monthly Awards PXP Missions:

Keep in mind that with the 15 pts. Monthly Awards missions, only players that can be obtained from the June program will yield progress towards the missions. Only June Topps Now cards will work towards the 2,000 PXP mission. You will only be able to make progress towards any of the missions listed above once Stage 1 is completed.

Stage 3
