by Sean Meakin-Bolderston | Tuesday 4th January 2011
EA have announced the release of the latest instalment of the long-running Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf series. Except this time, there's a twist, for the first time in the franchise, you will have the ability to play in 'the Masters', after a collaboration was formed with Augusta National Club. You will be able to play The Masters - described by EA themselves as "the most revered tournaments in golf" - on the grounds of the Augusta National, eventually working you way up to winning the 'Green Jacket'.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12: The Masters is slated for a release date of March 29 for North America, whilst everywhere else will have to wait an extra 3 days until April 1 to buy this game. PGA Tour 12 will be made available on Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Wii, with support for the Move built in. Owners of the PS3 will be especially excited, since they get a console exclusive Collector's Edition, too.

"For more than a decade, the Masters Tournament has been the most requested and coveted feature for the Tiger Woods PGA TOUR franchise among our fans," said Peter Moore, president of EA SPORTS. "Pairing the number one golf video game franchise with the most prestigious golf tournament in the world is a perfect marriage and we're thrilled to bring our fans this exciting opportunity to experience Augusta National Golf Club like never before."
