Asked for information on the length of the new agreement, an EA Sports spokesperson declined comment.ĮA also said Wednesday that in addition to the Masters, EA Sports PGA Tour will feature the PGA Championship, the U.S. The Masters was playable in only three golf games - EA secured the rights starting with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12, but by the time the publisher brought the franchise to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One with Rory McIlroy PGA Tour in 2015, the licensing deal had expired. It will be Augusta National’s first appearance in a golf video game since 2013’s Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The Masters and its home, Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia, will be playable exclusively in EA Sports PGA Tour, EA announced Wednesday, one day ahead of the 2021 Masters.
Following last week’s surprise news that it was reviving its simulation golf franchise, publisher Electronic Arts has announced that it is also bringing back the flashiest feather in the video game series’ cap: the Masters Tournament.
