ICYMI: Powerstar Golf on the Xbox One Gets “Kinda-Free” and Some DLC

If you’ve been waiting to try out “Powerstar Golf” on Xbox One, Microsoft states that now is the perfect time: It’s received a big new update featuring a new course, new achievements and a new Free Trial mode for all you newcomers.

New Course

For those of you who already have the full version of “Powerstar Golf,” the latest update includes new free course: Coyote Canyon.  You can check out a bit of the course in the new video below:



Try it for Free

If you’ve played “Killer Instinct” on Xbox One, then you might be familiar with how the Free Trial system works on the Xbox One. You can download “Powerstar Golf” for free and play a series of free events with one character. It includes a training event, as well as two different events that sample a hole from each of the game’s five courses.

Players on the free version still earn credits, level up, can purchase gear and collect boosters – just like the full game. Additional purchasable content is split into Course Game Packs, which run $5.99 each (or $19.99 for the whole thing). Game Packs unlock courses, golfers, and caddies. And they go towards the full game price, so you can choose to upgrade later without taking a hit.
