Famous Sony franchise is back. Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots started with the worst ratings in the series
PlayStation Studios has many series that for a long time defined the face of Sony consoles, but were then consigned to oblivion. One of these projects was Everybody's Golf, known in Japan as Hot Shots.
The announcement of a new installment - Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots - took place at Nintendo Direct. The surprise was twofold: the franchise is returning after 8 years, the development is being handled not by PlayStation Studios, but by Bandai Namco, and the premiere took place at a Nintendo presentation, not at State of Play.

Now you can evaluate the work of the HYDE studio, the authors of Digimon Survive. The result turned out to be far from ideal. Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots received the lowest average scores in the history of the series (not counting spin-offs like Everybody's Tennis). 72% is noticeably lower than the franchise standards. Weak interest is also confirmed by the numbers: the PC release gathered only 2241 players.
On the one hand, the figure is good for a niche, long-forgotten brand. But Bandai Namco and Sony were clearly counting on more.
