All four MLS 2023 third kits have been released. Several weeks ago, MLS announced that there would be four MLS third kits in total in 2023, so it is practically confirmed that Messi's Inter Miami won't get one. The four teams who got a third kit are New York City, New York Red Bulls, Atlanta United, and Toronto.
It is the first time since 2021 that Adidas are giving MLS teams third kits. The exact criteria of what a team need to do to earn a third kit remains undisclosed, although it is believed that teams must sell more than 100,000 kits during a specific timeframe.

Adidas 2023 MLS Third Kits
The Adidas MLS 2023 third kits aim to embrace the culture of each club's city and feature bold and progressive designs.
Four MLS teams, including Toronto FC and apparently Atlanta United, have been selected by Major League Soccer and Adidas to receive third kits for the 2023 season.
The introduction of these third kits add excitement and diversity to the MLS jersey collection. The design of match, training, and goalkeeper kits is limited in the league due to the streamlined deal with Adidas, unlike in other leagues with multiple kit makers.
