EVERYBODY’S GOLF HOT SHOTS features the series’ classic three-button shot mechanic. Aim shots down the fairway, time three button presses and swing to success. It’s an easy to learn mechanic to begin swinging for the greens, but becoming a true ace at the game will present a challenge. Players can take to the green solo or with friends in both local couch co-op and online multiplayer. A variety of game modes, including Challenge Mode, Solo Play and more across action-packed courses inspired by 10 different countries and regions will keep players teed up for all the game has to offer. Dynamic weather and time-of-day changes add depth and strategy to each round. And for players looking for a twist on the traditional game, the all-new Wacky Golf mode features unique obstacles and challenges to keep players on their toes.
