"When we set out to create a golf game we knew that we didn’t want to go the standard route of shipping a set number of courses that would potentially be based on real-world golf courses." stated HB Studios in a blog post. "We knew that it would involve licensing, a lot of art manpower and didn’t offer anything new to players. So we very quickly arrived at the idea of a course generator – one that was able to generate an infinite amount of playable content but without requiring a large overhead from users."
The Golf Club course creator can generate a brand new, original course in seconds that can be shared and played immediately online with friends and other gamers across PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. The technique of procedural generation also brings loading times into courses down to next to zero and completely eliminates any waiting between holes. There are also full editing capabilities should gamers want to put their mark on the generated course. Customization extends to Tournaments and Tours, which can be shared along with the courses online.
On the social side you can challenge your friends on a new or existing course in real time or try to beat their best recorded round. Add to this a myriad of stat tracking and personal bests of friends and rivals to beat, notifications, challenges and social media integration and you truly have a golf club worth joining.
