The trailer doesn’t show much gameplay, but there arePGA Tour 2K21hands-on previews, which show gameplay in depth. What is really impressive in the trailer is the customization options seen with the celebrities' created golfers. Schoolboy Q’s character is sporting clear aviator glasses, which he wears often outside ofPGA Tour 2K21.
Although The Miz’s in-game character is not as gaudy as his usual WWE outfits, his in-game character can be seen with an extremely unconventional golf swing. The Miz also then steals Shooter McGavin’s signature celebration, which could mean that some of Shooter’s mannerisms may be included inPGA Tour 2K21.
As each celebrity is seen hitting the green and sinking putts, it is all sand bunkers and bad putts for Shooter McGavin, who yells “This isn’t real golf!” He may be right, but the graphics forPGA Tour 2K21look very impressive and competition over online multiplayer gives players a tee-time with friends around the world.
