EA Sports parked the PGA Tour franchise in the clubhouse after the release of Rory McIlroy PGA Tour in 2015. But it looks like official PGA Tour golf is coming back to the PC and consoles this August with the release of The Golf Club 2019.
HB Studios has announced that the next entry in their golf simulation series will include a PGA Tour Career Mode with official events (including the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, the John Deere Classic, and the Waste Management Phoenix Open) and courses (such as TPC Boston and TPC Sawgrass).
The developer also has a bagful of other new features lined up for The Golf Club 2019 on the PC, PS4, and Xbox One:
