The series is well known for its humorous take on the game of golf which includes cartoon-like characters and modes such as miniature golf paired with a realistic engine and precise ball physics.

Everybody’s Golf is set to be released 20 years on from the original and is the 12th title in the series. Shuhei Yoshida of Sony’s Worldwide Studios said that the upcoming game would feature open world elements for the first time.
