Evaluation
Perfect Golf launched on May 3, 2016 and received a solid run of updates through its first two years. Between launch and September 2018, the developer shipped four major content releases: a large feature update (version 1.4.2.0) in December 2016 that included a new official course, licensed courses for Royal Birkdale (July 2017) and PGA National/Devil's Island (February 2017), and three par 3 contest courses in September 2018. Feature patches arrived roughly every few months from mid-2016 through late 2017, covering physics improvements, AI rewrites, new game modes, and simulator integrations.
The last developer communication of any kind was the September 25, 2018 post announcing the par 3 contest courses. Since then — nearly eight years as of June 2026 — there have been no news posts, patch notes, announcements, or any other official communication from Perfect Parallel. The historical cadence of major content was roughly every 3–6 months during the active period, meaning the developer has been silent for well over ten times that interval. No roadmap, unreleased DLC, or future content has ever been announced. The store description makes no promises of upcoming content. All of this points clearly to a game that has been complete since its final content drop in September 2018.

About this game

High resolution visuals, highly accurate ball flight physics developed using state of the art launch monitors, Perfect Golf is the best simulation of golf released to date.
With hundreds of user designed golf courses available along with Full Peer to Peer multiplayer Perfect Golf should be on anyone's wish list of PC Golf Games
The default game comes with well over 20 different game play modes including StrokePlay, MatchPlay and Skins scoring methods and supports, many team based modes of play including Foursomes and Greensomes (Alternate Shot), Better ball and Scramble
The game has an integrated multiplayer lobby with matchmaking and course checking to give you a seamless experience in finding online players to play against. Visit the lobby and join in the chat and find a game to play, or set up a private game for you and your friends using a password protected online game
The game comes with over 12 courses inclduing a driving range and a dedicated practice facility. All our official courses are fully georeferenced to the real world so the sun will rise and set in the correct place at the correct time for the day of the year.
Course Forge is our Golf Course design software and is included as a free download with purchase of the game and licensed for non commercial use only.
We have built an API for external tournament sites to be able to fully integrate into the game for online real time scoring and tracking. Tournaments set up on remote sites will show up inside the tournament lobby giving players a wide range of different tournaments to enter every week from public to private to official Perfect Golf Tournaments. In addition we also have an API to allow anyone to develop a hardware integration to Perfect Golf. Already people in the community are using these API to work on WII integration and other items. We have several official integrations with Launch Monitor companies and Simulator Systems Integrations are also in development.
Whether you want to change the contrast, brightness or saturation of the golf courses, add a little vignetting, set up your sun rays and lens flares, add a sky scattering effect change the weather, change how far back the camera follows the ball etc pretty much everything is configurable inside the game.
We also have many different swing types from two swing meters to motion swing with the mouse to real time integrated swing with the controller or mouse. There are several simulation options too.
Perfect Golf offers totally customisable green speeds based on official STIMP measurements from 8 to 14. In addition there are three firmness settings that can be used to set up a different challenge each time you play.
At any time engage the free camera and go for a wander around the golf course. While you are waiting for your opponent to hit you could be lining up your putt or taking a look down the hole at the green or simply moving to an aerial view of the course to watch your opponent hit. Our innovative free camera lets you take control of the way you want to watch the round unfold.
Perfect Golf has been designed from the outset to be a community driven game with regular content and feature releases based on player feedback. We have spent a long time in early access trying to get the game to be the best golf game on the market. We have incorporated many community suggestions during this process.
