Powerstar Golf Gets Bigger (and Free-er)

If you’ve been waiting to try out “Powerstar Golf” on Xbox One, 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.

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. 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.

New Course

For those of you who already have the full version of “Powerstar Golf,” the update includes new free course: Coyote Canyon.

What makes Coyote Canyon cool, aside from its scenic desert locale, is the new shortcut feature. Skilled players who can make blind shots over large rocks, technical drives between crevasses and trick shots off stones have some amazing opportunities. Rack up some Double Eagles and earn some of the new Achievements that come with the Coyote Canyon course.

The update for “Powerstar Golf” is available now. If you’ve never played it, now’s your chance to try it for free!
