Downloaded FM23 data update, how to start game in 2023

All player transfers seem to be updated but the problem is everytime I start a new game there is an option to start at 2022 not 2023. Not game breaking cuz I can still play with Luton but if there was a way to start in 2023 please let me know.

Those are two different types of update. If you start in 2023 with our data update a whole random season will have played and good chance Luton would be relegated.

If you want to start at the end of May with real results but random cup results you can try the start dates file but honestly there's no point our data update is infinitely better. Luton might not even be in the prem because playoffs will be random.

So basically all updates need to be started in the 22/23 season?

That would be my recommendation yes.
