EA’s PGA Tour series sort of took a year off last year, leading many to speculate that it might have been retired permanently, especially given the recent controversies and scandals that cover and associate athlete Tiger Woods has found himself in.
But of course, EA isn’t one to let any sport go untouched, and their take on golf is back- they have announced Rory McIlroy PGA Tour, which will be hitting the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in June. Not much else is known about the game at the moment, but of course, given that the Tiger Woods PGA Tour games exist, it is not exactly a stretch to imagine how the new game will work or play.
Rory McIlroy himself is a pretty good choice for a cover athlete- he is currently the number one ranked golfer in the world, and unlike so many other athletes that end up ON EA’s game covers, currently finds no controversy around himself.
Let’s hope it stays that way.
