It has to be said, this generation of consoles is seriously lacking in the old golfing department. Yeah, we’ve got Rory McIlroy smashing it out of the rough, and we’ve got Dangerous Golf dropping the putts on the 3rd hole, but the only title that really hit the fairway was The Golf Club. Now though, The Golf Club 2 is coming and today a whole load of new detail got announced.
Maximum Games and HB Studios are preparing the launch of The Golf Club 2 on Xbox One, PS4 and PC this Spring. Today sees the release of a first look trailer, giving an in-depth look at the title and the process behind its development. With a progression based Career Mode in place, the addition of Societies and an all improved Course Creator, the sequel to The Golf Club looks to be pushing things on at a fair old rate.
You’ll also be finding a host of new environments, new swing mechanics, dynamic online tournaments and near limitless customisation options in place. Much of this has been put in due to the responses of The Golf Club community with the career mode seeing the competition grow with you, pushing you to improve your game at every moment.
Players will also be able to create their own online Society or join a pre-existing one. While you can be part of more than one Society, one of them will be your Primary Membership and you’ll represent your Society in all events you play, climbing your way to the top of Team Leaderboards and upgrading your clubhouse as you progress.
The Course Creator has had an overhaul and the signature feature sees a vast improvement in this upcoming sequel, with more creative freedom to build the ideal course to suit any player’s style. Fans of the first installment can either start fresh or upgrade a previous masterpiece from The Golf Club. Included in the new additions to the Course Creator are: tournament dressings with media stands, crowd placement, multi-level water features, and more.
