To escalate its relationship-straining putting contests, Golf With Your Friends 2 is turning to chaos and custom courses
Golf With Your Friends 2 is in development at Radical Forge, the studio that handled DLC for the original game. The original Golf With Your Friends, released in early access in 2016 by Blacklight Interactive, became a standout success during the Covid-19 lockdowns, offering a competitive party game alternative to other popular titles of the era.
The sequel aims to build on this foundation by escalating the competitive chaos that defined the original. According to the announcement, Golf With Your Friends 2 will introduce new features including custom course creation tools, allowing players to design their own crazy golf challenges. The game is also leaning into increased chaos elements to further strain friendships through its competitive putting contests.
As a competitive crazy golf simulation, the game is positioned as a social experience designed to create both entertaining and relationship-testing moments among players. The franchise’s appeal lies in its ability to turn simple putting mechanics into opportunities for friendly competition and memorable moments between friends.
