Following last week's leak, 2K Sports has officially announced PGA Tour 2K23, the next entry in the professional golf series that is being released during one of the most tumultuous times in the history of golf. As rumored, Tiger Woods will grace the cover of the game's Deluxe and Tiger Woods Editions, which launch on October 11. The standard edition, meanwhile, arrives a few days later on October 14.
Woods is also the cover star for the standard edition and is playable in the game. Additionally, Woods worked with 2K and developer HB Studios as an «executive director» on the project.
Woods worked with EA exclusively for a long time on its Tiger Woods PGA Tour series before jumping ship and signing with 2K.
«It's not only great to be back on the cover of a video game, but the Executive Director role makes this a truly unique opportunity,» Woods said. «2K is the perfect partner for me and I am excited to continue impacting the game and culture of golf beyond my play on the PGA Tour.»
PGA Tour 2K23 features more than 14 male and female pro golfers at launch, including Woods, Justin Thomas, Lexi Thompson, Tony Finau, Lydia Ko, Collin Morikawa, Will Zalatoris, and Brooke Henderson. In terms of the commentary booth, Rich Beem and Luke Elvy return, joined by English broadcaster Henni Koyack.
Like previous versions of PGA Tour 2K, this year's game has a career mode where players compete for the FedExCup, while there are also exhibition and multiplayer modes.
In terms of courses, there are more than 20 licensed tracks at launch, including South Course of Wilmington Country Club, The Renaissance Club, and St. George's Golf and Country Club. Players can also create their own courses with a course designer feature.
