What’s the reason for no switch release?

I assume there will be a fair amount of overlap...all FedExCup Playoff courses are likely in both, TPCs like Sawgrass, Scottsdale, etc. will probably be in both, too.

But still, 20 in 2K's game is a decent increase from the 15 that were in 2K21 at launch, and they added courses from across the pond and outside the US, which were sorely missing.

Educated guess...not many people played it on Switch.

TGCTours didn't include switch players due to how they pull the scores. I think 2K's servers stopped sending new courses designed on Switch across all platforms way back in March or something like that, too. I think lag was a much bigger problem on the Switch, too...it sounded like courses designed on the other consoles were more difficult for the Switch to run.

So just a hunch that Switch didn't have a ton of players on it.

Nice to see 3 click swing implemented. I hope that is customizable as to the speed of the bar and the size of the sweet spot. I would still probably play using the swing stick especially if they managed to iron out the quirks.

The Good: - playable pros, including female golfers (and a decent list at that) - caddies are in - 3-click swing included - 20 courses, including some not in the US - sounds like lots of brands/gear (Nike, Scotty Cameron to me are the big adds) - new objects are added to the course designer - playable Michael Jordan? OK! The Bad - looks slightly better graphically, but probably not the jump most are hoping for - not a surprise, but a big focus on the "casual" side of things - very little in terms of career mode details The Ugly - I don't like the sounds of "consumable golf ball sleeves"...has the same feel as WGT mobile game stuff in terms of DLC - the trailer they posted...has no audio. Typical. Still sorting thru the info at all the different info in all the different places, but this is what I picked up off the bat.

Same game engine. There is only so much juice you can get out of an orange.

Will the PC version be next gen?

Missed this earlier but Arlington called it out… Caddies!

I wonder if that is cut scene only or if they will walk the course with you. Regardless pretty awesome add.

I didn’t see that picture of MJ earlier but that is pretty cool as well.

I’m irrationally excited about all of the new gear (Nike, TW Collection) being in the game.

I also just read/realized that 2K23 will NOT be cross-platform in terms of multiplayer play.

https://www.videogamer.com/news/pga-...ross-platform/

"The announcement, however, also notes that multiplayer will only be playable with the same console and across generations. Therefore, cross play will not be supported between PlayStation and Xbox."

I would add that to my "Bad" section...haha
