EA’s sim golf game, “EA Sports PGA Tour,” has been delayed by a couple of weeks, with the title now launching on April 7 instead of its original March 24 release date. This also means that early access to the game will start on April 4, three days prior to the official launch.

EA announced the slight delay through the official EA Sports PGA Tour Twitter account:

It is worth noting that the launch of EA Sports PGA Tour will coincide with the week of the Masters Tournament, a major golf championship. The tweet also mentions that the delay should hopefully give the team enough time to put on “a few final touches” to the game before its launch. These final touches will apparently include updates to courses in order to match their 2023 design.
EA closed the statement by claiming that they would share more news in the coming days and weeks, so players shouldn’t feel in the dark while waiting a bit longer for the game to release. In the meantime, check out some recent gameplay footage of EA Sports PGA Tour, which highlights the complex physics and controls to emulate a real golf game.
