    It appears that GameFly may have leaked the planned upcoming retail release for The Golf Club on Xbox One and PS4. The website has "Golf Club Gold" listed for release on Tuesday, April 28.

All the player movement through trades and signings, rotations, and injuries have been taken care of in the rosters as well. Net gain over the period was 48 overall points, compared to the last check which was...

One reason for that could be chalked up to a lack of Major League Baseball licensing. While real player names could be used (similar to how fantasy baseball services can utilize them without a cost involved) there was no MLB branding, te...

    The patch mentioned last week for The Golf Club, which was already out on PC, has now gone live on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
