    Rory McIlroy PGA Tour Screenshots - Wolf Creek


    EA Sports has released some more Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR screenshots. These screenshots feature Wolf Creek. If you missed the screenshots from TPC Sawgrass, click here.

    Rory replaced Tiger Woods as the face of the new golf game, after EA and Tiger parted ways in 2013. The new game will utilize the Frostbite 3 engine and feature all-new commentary from Frank Nobilo and Rich Lerner of Golf Channel.

    Rory McIlroy PGA Tour is scheduled to release on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One sometime in June.

    I mean there is no doubt that the environments look incredible but unfortunately with the way this game has trended the last few years, it's going to take a lot more than some pretty grass to bring me back.

    I will be watching with skepticism.

      Looking gorgeous! But also cautious with this release, hoping for less pay to win schemes!

        For me, it's going to come down to how well they support user generated content. And I'm not too concerned about licensed courses since those courses are perfectly replicated on TGC. What I'm more interested in is zany creations made by users. There are some super talented content creators out there let me tell ya.

          There won't be a course designer or user created courses, to my knowledge.

            Here we go again with EA. Unfortunately they figured out that the majority of gamers get entranced by graphics so they are baiting these poor souls. The intelligent gamer cares about gameplay which EA has not mentioned or shown with about 2 months to launch. NHL 15 all over again. On the other hand, TGC is exceeding my expectation every day so I have no need for EA pga. And TGC is $25 cheaper

              Ea is evil of course who could forget that. Why can't people enjoy both games?

                Anything EA puts out, people will respond like this. It's too bad EA has alienated so many consumers, but they will make money no matter what. I love The Golf Club, but cannot wait for this title. Graphics matter to me and I can't wait to play 17 at Sawgrass. Also, the last Tiger Woods game was really good. With aids turned off and the diagonal swing mechanic plus the country club, it played a very rewarding game of golf.

                It would expand the playability if EA include a course creator tool, but I'm not going to loose sleep over it. I have the Golf Club for that. At least as gamers we have 3 golf titles to choose from this generation and hopefully 4 if Hot Shots comes out on the PS4 and Vita.
                I am the lesson after the fall.

                  Exactly. This isn't madden. There's competition. I love the golf club, play it daily. Of course ea is going to show off frostbite and this game will probably look better than the golf club. And you know what? We as consumers can choose what game we want. I can't wait to see what pga has to offer as far as gameplay goes.

                    These screen shots are amazing! Wow! I have a question. Is Augusta going to be in this game? If it is,I can't even imagine how beautiful it's gonna look! I can't believe this game is coming on December 31st,I thought it was coming out this summer. In any event I already pre ordered from Amazon!

                      Wow, game looks great, visually it's going to completely embarrass The Golf Club.

                      The one thing TGC will always having going for it though that EA golf wont, is a course designer.

                      Hopefully this is going to be available on EA Access though, I'd like to try it though before buying.

                        These course screens do look fantastic, but if it's limited to a handful of of courses (have yet to see a full course list for this game) that come with the game and additional (paid $$$) DLC then this game will never compete with The Golf Club in replay value.

                        Having all these great visuals is awesome, but you can only play the same 10-20 courses so many times (I have a list of 20+ courses that I really want to play in TGC and haven't gotten around to them yet, plus new themes are constantly in development). A GNCD type tool would go a long way in making this a truly "next gen" golf game, but until that happens I'm not holding out much hope that this plays an equally sim game of golf as TGC.

                          For right now, true. I would not count EA out on this in the future as their two competing products have one (TGC and PP). I know they were discussing the possibilities of a Course Architect a couple of years ago. They had one for the PC version from 2000-2006.

                          Rumor is the business model for RM might be different than past Tiger games. No details but yearly full releases might be a thing of the past.

                            That would explain the lack of the "15" on the title. But I'm intriged by this. Hopefully they treat this like battlefield and have a release every couple years and still update the one that's out.

                              I actually think for a smaller more niche market such as video game golf, it makes sense to deviate away from a yearly release model.
