Golf fans are going to have to wait a little bit longer for Rory McIlroy PGA Tour.

Originally scheduled to launch in June, the game has been pushed back until July 14.



The new release date coincides with the beginning of the Open Championship at St Andrews, which tees off during the same week.

EA Sports will use the additional time to implement online tournaments,

"Launching the game on July 14 allows us to deliver a fully-featured online offering, including online tournaments," reads an EA blog post.

"We know even though golf can be a fun game to play solo, it's even better with friends.

"Our team has been [working] hard to ensure online rounds and tournaments are a fun experience from day one."

In development for Xbox One, PS4 and PC, Rory McIlroy PGA Tour is the first EA Sports title to be built using the Frostbite engine, a new toolset that allows the development team to create more detailed environments.

Frostbite also renders the entire course at once, eliminating load times between holes and allowing users to play their shot from almost any location.
