PGA Tour 2K25: Everything you need to know about Tiger Woods’ latest video game

The GOAT is once again the main man for PGA Tour 2K25 – but who else is featured and, more importantly, when will you be able to play?

PGA Tour 2K25 is finally here! Well, almost.

With the tagline ‘Next Round, Best Round’ the most anticipated golf video game since, well, its predecessor is about to be available for you to buy, so let’s dive in and see what’s new…

Who’s in PGA Tour 2K25?

First up there’s the cover stars. Tiger Woods is back, of course, but this time he’s not alone. Joining the 15-time major champion as the faces of PGA Tour 2K25 are US Open champion Matt Fitzpatrick and seven-time tour winner Max Homa.

On launch, the trio will feature on a roster of 11 playable PGA Tour and LPGA stars, which also includes Justin Thomas, Lydia Ko, Tony Finau, Tom Kim, and Brooke Henderson.

But you also want to be able to live out your dream of playing in the big leagues, right? On top of the standard multiplayer and online modes, 2K have created the most diverse, customizable ‘MyPlayer’ experience to date.

The ‘MyPlayer Progression System’ allows you to work your way to legend status via a range of new skill-based training methods and pre-tournament events.

You can even hold press conferences with your player!

There is also more equipment and apparel available than ever before – including Callaway, Titleist, Cobra, Mizuno, Adidas, Nike, Puma, and Malbon – so you can make sure your player is geared up with your favorite brand.

Which tournaments can you play in PGA Tour 2K25?

For the first time in PGA Tour 2K, you can tee up in major championships, with The Open, US Open, and PGA Championship all making their debut in the franchise.

“Some of my most iconic moments, unforgettable hole outs and dominant victories took place at the majors,” Woods said ahead of the launch. “In PGA Tour 2K25, players can step onto the tee box and create unforgettable moments as their customizable ‘MyPlayer’, my fellow cover athletes Matt Fitzpatrick and Max Homa, or even me.”

You can also compete in the PGA Tour’s flagship event and so-called ‘fifth major’, the Players Championship.

Which leads nicely into…

Which golf courses can you play in PGA Tour 2K25?

There is absolutely nothing like being able to tee up on the finest golf courses on the planet – and if you can’t do it in real life then this is the next best thing.

PGA Tour 2K25 will feature 29 licensed courses when it launches – including the home of the Players Championship, the infamous Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass.

And those three major additions? Well, you’ll be able to play their 2025 host venues too with Royal Portrush, Oakmont, and Quail Hollow all expertly recreated in digital form, as are 2K classics such as Pebble Beach and Riviera.

The Old Course at St Andrews will also be available to play not long after the launch date.

There is also a Topgolf mode for you to work on your game, while the industry-leading Course Designer has had a revamp and allows you to lay out your own tracks or play those designed by other players.

What about the technical stuff?

If you want to get super nerdy, 2K have advanced the mechanics of the game which the company says “truly nails the feel of handling a golf club”. These include a new ‘EvoSwing’ system with new shot types, ball flights, and improved roll physics.

There is also a new ‘Attributes Point’ system and upgraded ‘Skill Trees’ which allows players to truly represent themselves and their own unique style through the ‘MyPlayer’ customization tools.

When is the release date for PGA Tour 2k25?

Drum roll, please…

PGA Tour 2K25 will land on February 28, 2025 on Steam, PS5, and Xbox.
