While I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with PGA Tour 2K25, I will say that the decision to lean towards realism isn’t one I’m truly a fan of. However, the way this game handles it is so well done that I can look past my personal preferences. Amazing graphics and more—this is definitely a step in the right direction for golf games.

Just like real-life golf, PGA Tour 2K25 is a hearty mix of satisfaction and frustration. The former comes from its excellent shot crafting and wonderful shot-to-shot golf play which is moreish and multifaceted. The latter comes in the form of disappointing commentary and audio, a dizzying amount of transition screens, some missteps in skills, and the glaring absence of the most famous courses and tournaments which still keep it firmly in EA Sports PGA Tour’s shadow.

PGA Tour 2K25 is certainly a big improvement, even though it overloads the experience with so many upgradable items and the trivial personality system in MyCareer mode. The game is visually wholesome and the gameplay feels butter smooth that's newcomer-friendly and rewarding for pros who adjust the stats on every swing.

PGA Tour 2K25 is a strong return to form for the franchise, even when it's hamstrung by terrible progression.

PGA Tour 2K25 is the latest golfing title on the market. As an avid golfer and gamer, I’ve spent countless hours on the virtual links. From nostalgic sessions with PGA Tour Golf on my Mega Drive to the latest iterations on modern consoles, I’ve witnessed the evolution of golf games firsthand. With a legacy spanning multiple generations and platforms, it’s natural to wonder: how much has really changed? After all, the world’s most famous courses remain largely the same, and the fundame...

PGA Tour 2K25 is not a perfect game, but it does a solid job of bringing golf to life for new and experienced fans. Some new game modes and more improved visuals and performance would make the next installment a true classic, but PGA Tour 2K25 is a good step forward.

While I probably don’t look like it, I am a massive fan of golf games. Maybe it’s because I’m useless at golf in real life, but I’ve been sinking birdies and the occasional eagle for years – and once upon a time, even a hole in one! 2K and HB Studios returning with another entry in their golf series is a welcome sight to behold, especially as PGA Tour 2K25 is an all-round improvement on the last.

PGA Tour 2K25 is the result of 2K taking its golf-sim rivalry with EA seriously. After the EA Sports PGA Tour series made a comeback in 2023 after being a decade away, HB Studios made the calculated move of taking two years to develop PGA Tour 2K25, as opposed to 2K’s other annualized releases like NBA 2K. While both EA and 2K have a license to develop PGA Tour games, EA snatched The Masters away while 2K signed a long-term, exclusive deal with Tiger Woods. Suffice it to say, points have been scored on both sides, and this title is...

As a sim golf acolyte, I picked a great time to get into the genre. PGA Tour 2K25 is slick, seamless, and pretty compelling. You’ve got a bunch of ways to play, and an endless amount of mechanical customization to mess with. If you want a particular kind of match, at a very specific difficulty setting, you can make that happen. I was mashing buttons through the post-game interviews, but the actual games are excellent. I’m thrilled they have so many control schemes to choose from, especially since stick controls are so egregious. The courses look awesome, your swings feel...

The team at HB Studios and 2K has found the mark with PGA Tour 2K25. The game is a significant improvement on everything that made the previous title good and, when it comes to sports titles, that’s exactly what the doctor ordered.

2K Sports and HB Studios have stepped up to the tee on that front. The Golf Club was a nice reintroduction to the virtual fairways and greens before it handed over to PGA Tour 2K21 and, more recently, PGA Tour 2K23.

PGA Tour 2K25 comes back strong, with substantial changes to how it looks and plays bringing it within striking distance of the competition.

PGA Tour 2K25 is a golf game for everyone, offering an enjoyable golf simulation for players of any skill level. There are incremental upgrades across the board from 2K23, though I do have concerns about the accessibility of some online modes, as well as the increased prevalence of premium currencies.

While I do wish that there were, technically, offline modes available to play, we can only hope that 2K will add that option after launch. Local multiplayer feels great, and online multiplayer is just as solid as ever. If you’ve been searching for a reason to get back on the green, there’s never been a better time than now.

Not the most polished of officially licensed golf games, but its passion for the sport and wide variety of options make it a very playable and fun experience.

Ten years ago, many would wonder if an officially-licensed PGA Tour game would ever happen again. Fast-forward to today and the genre is eating better than it ever has. There's competition in PGA games and if developer HB Studios was told in 2017 that this is where The Golf Club series would be today, everyone would probably faint. 2K picked up the reigns of that series and transitioned it over to the PGA 2K series. PGA 2K23 saw tremendous growth and improvement over time as the development team would wait two years until the series' next release. PGA 2K25 is...
