Will there be a EA PGA Tour 2025?
Hopefully a 2025 version will be in the future? What do you think?

If they don't start getting this game into shape right now, there will be nobody left to play in 2024, let alone 2025.
This game is a disgrace right now.
@BlackCat09522I don’t judge a series with one disappointing iteration. I played the Tiger Woods series and EA Rory. The TW games were absolutely awesome and EA Rory was still enjoyable. The current game disappointed me with the RNG, putting physics, character creation and lack of options that were once in the TW series.
However, I believe in comebacks. Being a regular with the WWE 2K series, WWE 2K20 was probably one of the worst sports games I played due to so many bugs. By 2022 2K has cleaned up the bugs and built a far superior product with WWE 2K22. The series never looked back and got even better each year.
I believe EA PGA Tour can make the same comeback for the next iteration because they still have the intellectual property of the Tiger Woods series. In addition, a new 2025 iteration would give the devs more resources to clean up any old bugs and make overall game better compared to keeping it a live service. If EA can make the 2025 iteration like TW14 with the gameface and better graphics, I think more people will come back to play the game. I would even support an option to allow players to choose the following styles of gameplay like what they do in NHL series: 1) TW Gameplay, 2) Rory Gameplay and 3) EA PGA Tour Gameplay. This would be a good start to include people who likes this game and ones who likes the TW ganes.

To me, it looks like there will be no new golf game and that's why the 2 devs left. EA declared this as a live service game and this is it. I was hoping for something similar to the model of 2K with a release every 2 year. Sadly, this looks like the EA Rory model, and when there will be not enough money to be made...
I'm not judging a series, I'm judging this game and it is a disgrace. It has been nothing but an exercise in how to waste time and money
It's a year old now. It was bad when it first came out, it's been actively made worse since. No doubt the update will have an addition to a menu somewhere and EA will think that will make everyone happy and forget the real issues with this train wreck.
- @BlackCat09522 I actually agree with you. That is one reason I traded game in for Madden 24 last August. I think a new iteration is needed to get the resources to actually fix the bugs. I actually liked the game when it first came out, but it went downhill after the Notorious Update 3.
