Tiger Woods, once the iconic cover star of the EA PGA golf franchise and the very name given to the titles, is back in the video game sphere, but this time with rival 2K Sports. PGA Tour 2K23 is the latest in 2K's series and Tiger once again finds himself not only on the cover of a video game, but also as an in-game player, and has been named Executive Director advising the game development team.
“It’s not only great to be back on the cover of a video game, but the Executive Director role makes this a truly unique opportunity,” said Tiger Woods. “2K is the perfect partner for me and I am excited to continue impacting the game and culture of golf beyond my play on the PGA TOUR.”
Woods is the highlight of 14 total playable pros at launch who compete over 20 licensed courses and tons of clothing and gear customization options from top brands. There is a casual mode for rookies to this game, competitions for experienced players, and even TopGolf where you set up on a driving range aiming for targets to tally points.
PGA Tour 2K23 releases October 14th on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox X|S, and PC. There are three editions to choose from: Standard, Deluxe, and Tiger Woods Edition (digital only) with increasing rewards for editions and pre-order bonuses.
