Three Fields Entertainment, an independent studio comprising some of the legendary minds behind Burnout, today unveiled their first game.
Long teased as an “innovative new twist on a sports game”, Dangerous Golf sends players—not to the course—but rather a series of unexpected locales, including a hotel kitchen, petrol station, palace ballroom, and a medieval castle.
So, presumably players must carefully navigate these areas to get the lowest score they can, right? Wrong. Your job is to rack up the biggest bill you can, with maximum destruction and chaos, ultimately culminating in—you guessed it—the almighty SmashBreaker.
Three Fields Entertainment broke ground in early 2014 following a major internal restructuring and a series of departures from EA’s Criterion Games studio. Since then, they’ve been hard at work on their first release as an independent studio.
For Dangerous Golf, Three Fields is working closely with both Epic and Nvidia to crank up the action, with the power of Unreal Engine 4 and PhysX, to deliver a “truly physics based game experience”.
As for what might be around the corner? Well, you might want to strap in.
Two things. Our first game is a multiplayer sports game. Coming Spring 2016. Then we make a driving game. RT and #ScreamIfYouWantToGoFaster

What sort of driving game you ask? A spiritual successor. Speed. Traffic. And Crashing. Lots and lots of crashing. #ShinyRedSomething — Official TFE (@3FieldsEnt) October 1, 2015
Dangerous Golf releases digitally this May on Xbox One.
