The brand new EA Sports PGA Tour Season 6.0 finally dropped, bringing a new course, new seasonal reward, and The Ryder Cup. Additionally, the new season includes a suite of patch notes. This patch fixes and improves several areas of the game from gameplay (online & offline), career, challenges, tournaments, quests, courses, and more. So, what's new in EA Sports PGA Tour Season 6.0? Let's find out what's different from the last update.

Official EA Sports PGA Tour Season 6.0 Patch Notes

The theme of Season 6 is the Ryder Cup, a men's golf competition that takes place every two years. Players from both the U.S. and Europe qualify to represent their nation. While they're trying to win one competition, they're participating for a chance to be in the Ryder Cup, too.

Each match in the competition provides chances to earn points, with a grand total of 28 earnable points. The goal for the winning team is to at least get 14.5 of the 28 points to secure a victory. In the first two days, the competition goes underway with two four-match sessions of fourball and foursomes, respectively. In the final day, the single matches take place, where more points can be earned.

PGA Tour Season 6.0 adds the theme of this year's Ryder Cup, and much more. When first starting the game, you'll see your player wearing the uniform of the team your support in this tournament. The Marco Simone Golf & Country Club, is now playable in the game. Additionally, the real version of this course will host the 2023 Ryder Cup. However, you can still play the Ryder Cup on other courses that also hosted the event.

The Pro Pass also received a few new items, such as the “Multiverse” gear set for both the U.S. and European teams. Completing the Pro Pass also earns you other neat rewards like Scottie Scheffler's Ball Spec. Additionally, Premium Pass owners can get their hands on a Titleist SM9 Custom Team USA or Europe Wedge.

Season 6.0 also added 2v2 formats Foursomes and Four-Ball in online mode. Other improvements to Season 9 include updated filters for online leaderboards, new Ryder Cup challenge series, Ryder Cup themed Weekly and Seasonal Tournaments, and more.

Lastly, created golfers can now be leveled up to level 60 (previously, 50). However, EA Sports tuned the ratings and level progression so that you won't be able to reach 100+ ratings. This is a bummer for high leveled players who already reached a max rating with their golfer. The grind continues unfortunately for EA PGA players in Season 6.
