Whether it’s worth the money, well, that’s up to you to decide. Of course, each tier also grants you an increasing amount of bonus in-game items, such as cosmetics and VC. On the other hand, those of you that purchase the the deluxe edition (an even hundred dollars) or the Tiger Woods edition (one hundred and twenty dollars), then you’ll be able to start playing on Tuesday, October 11th. That will cost you sixty bucks (or seventy, if you get the cross-gen version). Well, that’s for regular mortals that “only” purchase the standard edition of the game. If anything changes, we’ll update the article.Īs for the PGA Tour 2K23 release date on other platforms, aka Xbox, PlayStation and PC, it’s Friday, October 14th. So, yeah, that’s where we stand at time of writing. It was delayed in the EU, but only for about a month. The previous game in the franchise, PGA Tour 2K21, came out on Nintendo’s console on the same day as it did on all other platforms. In fact, there’s been no mention of a Switch version at all. Yes, let’s get the bad news out of the way straight from the jump: there is no officially confirmed launch date for the Nintendo Switch. We’ll go into further detail next week, when we’ll run our full review of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 for the Wii.PGA Tour 2K23 is coming out in mid-October, but the exact release date will vary depending on which edition of the game you got on your platform PC, Xbox, PlayStation and maybe, some day, the Switch. They’ve beefed this year’s version up quite a bit. The fantastic disc golf mode is also back, and now it’s fully online compatible. It’s a lot of fun, and makes for a nice break after some tense holes in the standard game.Īs for the rest of the game, there’s a new Ryder Cup Challenge on the Celtic Manor resort in Wales in this version. Also, many of his PGA tour stops were a disappointment. All of the windmills and waterfalls and fun scenery you’d expect make it into the minigolf, as does all the teeth-gritting and fist shaking from just missing the hole. or my money, Tiger Woods is having one dimple-smacking great year. There’s four courses in the game, including a racing speedway, an ice land, and the one I tried, called Mini Predator. That’s not to say that the minigolf is too easy, but they did include a completely different physics engine, and it’s more geared toward family fun than it is to realistic golf. So how did PGA Tour 11 get easier? They added minigolf to the game. And if that’s not hard enough, in the most difficult mode, even the on-screen cues are removed, forcing you to play solely by feel. It really seems to follow the path of your club swing, which makes it feel much more like you’re playing a golf game, and less like you’re triggering an automatic golf swing. In the game’s Advanced and Tour Pro modes, you’ll be looking at the ball and lining up your club for a real swing that makes you feel like a pro when it connects nicely, and like an amateur when it barely clips and veers off to the left, into the sand. It certainly feels like it - it feels authentic, though I’m no golf pro. In this mode you’ll have to be mindful of the point of contact on the ball, which EA tells me is as close as they could get it to 1:1 motion. Along with this view, the swing mechanics have been beefed up to be even more realistic, which means that you’ll need to follow through with something close to what a real golf swing would be like. This makes the experience even more interactive, and it made me a bit more nervous. Imagine yourself looking down towards your feet and that’s exactly what you’ll see. It’s a first-person view of your club and the ball. The new control mode they’ve added to PGA Tour 11 is called True View. Just know that in the game’s most realistic control modes, you can actually miss the ball on your swing. That’s not to say that PGA Tour 11 is impossible to play, though. For me, it seems like increased realism usually leads to increased difficulty. In our review we said that this game made it seem like they invented Wii Motion Plus just for golf!įor PGA Tour 11, EA Sports took the whole realism thing and ran with it. It added an increased control sensibility that really made you feel like you had some realistic control over your virtual golf club. It was one of the first games that used Nintendo’s Wii Motion Plus controller addition. We really dug last year’s Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10.
