EA Sports PGA TOUR Releases in Spring 2023

Wonder if they will add in the 2023 Major rotation on top of the 2022 list? That would be amazing.

Here’s to hoping PS5s will finally be available 1 year from now.


It would be cool if they at least threw us a bone and gave us 2-3 early build screenshots of Augusta in a couple weeks.

Wonder if they could drop stuff alongside each major?

Bummer. Oh well. Finally have some news. A little concerned no mention of the masters at…all? Just championship golf. Kind of wondering if there was some sort of falling out with Augusta and they pulled out, and they had to start from scratch?

What a drag...

Good to at least "know" I guess

Hey, maybe by the time this releases we can be trying to already buy a PS5 "Slim" - lol!

Saw that fat boy at Best Buy the other day.
Damn -- PS5's are huuuge

Glad it's still next generation consoles only.

Was afraid, with the delay, that they might've been spending time working toward backing it compatible with current gen systems - therefore handicapping what it could be as a next-gen only game.

Yeah, I had the same thought, Be hilarious if it came true. Man my PS3 super slim is so small, I wish they could get them down to that size again.

But yeah, at least we know. I would be happy if they dropped stuff through the year to keep us in the loop until launch.

Same here. NASCAR 21 went that route and it ended in absolute disaster.

Very much agree with you here.

We saw how Rory needed a bit of a hardware "boost" on last gen. There was no need to do that again in 2022.

Yes , Pop ins and such plagued what otherwise was a beautiful game for its time and even into 2022. It was ambitious graphics wise, just missed the mark in swing mechanics and obviously missing so many courses.

I believe with TW14 with all DLC I have roughly 40 courses, then Rory launched with only like 8 real courses. Talk about a drop off. Take Tiger out too and it was done for before it launched.

I will say, after the patches and new courses, it was a lot better but it was too late. I honestly never thought EA would do golf again after 2K got the rights into TGC 2019.

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Releases in Spring 2023

Makes sense, since the new-gen consoles are still scarce... and the game has legit competition now with PGA 2k.

Interested to see if PGA 2K can hit a release this year.
