EA Sports PGA Tour Update 1.000.010 Patch Notes | EA Sports PGA Tour Update 6.0 Patch Notes | EA Sports PGA Tour August 10 Patch Notes:

Season 5 and the FedExCup Playoffs are here!

The North Course at Olympia Fields Country Club, host of the second leg of the 2023 FedExCup Playoffs, is now available to play in all game modes. In career mode, the BMW Championship now alternates between Olympia Fields and Wilmington Country Club every season. Menus, screens, and key art have also been updated to be styled in the Season 5 FedExCup Playoffs theme. Three straight weeks of new Challenges will also be released that recreate key moments from each of the three FedExCup Playoff events.

Season 5 also introduces Pro Pass* as the best way to experience everything that each season has to offer and earn exclusive rewards. Season 5 Pro Pass includes new seasonal content such as Scottie Sheffler’s Signature Irons Spec in the free tier, while the premium tier includes the new Orange TaylorMade MyStealth 2 Driver, Jordan Spieth’s Scottie Cameron 009 Putter, and more. Throughout the season you’ll earn tokens to level up your Pro Pass by completing live Quests, FedExCup Playoffs Challenges, and playing rounds in Online, Tournaments, and Career modes.

We are excited to announce that Match Play is now available to play in both Online and Private Match modes. Online leaderboards have also been updated to differentiate between Match Play and Stroke Play performance. Since this is the first online turn-based format that has been released, we will continue to build upon it as we look to add additional formats like Foursomes and Four-Ball and make overall improvements to the online turn-based gameplay experience.

We are also happy to announce that one round tournaments are now available in Career mode. Note that one round tournaments are no cut events where the player is required to play all 18 holes.

Online mode has been updated to show upcoming playlists along with timers to indicate when they will be opened and closed. This will allow us to expand online playlist variety such as making other gameplay styles like Arcade, Pro, and Simulation available to play for periods of time.
