Physics-accurate golf clashes with arcade-style tension as Golf 5 MAX turns back the clock with a nostalgic aesthetic and dials up the pressure. Aim for greatness as eight distinct golfers with big personalities, and conquer seven original 18-hole courses.
Return to arcade golf’s glory days in “Birdie-or-Bust” mode, hearkening back to the pressure of coin-consuming arcade cabinets where average scores can instantly end rounds. Shore up skills by warming up from any hole and position in Practice Mode. Compete online against up to three other players and try to achieve the lowest score in Stroke Play mode, win the most holes in Match Play, race the clock in Time Attack, and reach the top of the leaderboard in official International eGolf Federation tournaments.
Master intuitive 3-click swing mechanics providing maximum control. Dare to swing beyond 100% effort by tapping into the MAX zone to go for powerhouse drives at the risk of reduced accuracy. Earn experience and invest skill points with RPG-style skill progression. Boost Power for stronger swings and further shots, Technique for greater spin and shot shaping, Consistency for more control of shot meters, Recovery for better saves from bunkers and rough, and Accuracy for tighter shot dispersion around your target.
Choose from eight golfers, each with a distinct story and style. Play as Michael “Ole’ Reliable” Hoffman, whose calm, consistent approach defines his game; Janice “The Tigress” Nasato, a former gymnast known for her control and focus; or Willie “Big Dog” Jackson, a power hitter with an explosive swing.
Take in the sights and navigate the natural obstacles of seven beautiful courses inspired by real-world locations. Face the heat of the Colorado Desert Golf Club’s rocky and watery terrain, gaze at the mountain views of Kilimanjaro National Park at Safari Ridge, or find inner peace in the tranquil gardens of Kamikochi Valley Retreat Golf Club.
“Birdie-or-Bust Mode would have eaten rolls of quarters back in the ‘90s,” said Antonio Marín, CEO and co-founder of AAA Game Studios. “There is an entire generation of golf gaming fans that never experienced golf’s arcade glory days, and we wanted to bring yesteryear’s arcade cabinet experience to the next generation of golf fans…with no quarters necessary! This is only the beginning, we have much more to come after launch, stay tuned!”
