The better-equipped follow-up to EA's golf hit, with a battery save, and among the cheapest US carts.
Polygames developed PGA Tour Golf II for EA Sports. The Genesis game came out in North America in January 1993, in Europe on 19 February 1993 and in Japan on 16 April 1993. It adds six professional golfers to the first game's four, for ten in all: Tommy Armour III, Bruce Lietzke, Mark McCumber, Mark O'Meara, Larry Mize and Joey Sindelar.
Electronic Games said in March 1993 that the sequel keeps the best features of an original that had set new standards for video golf, and Mean Machines Sega called the sequel even more incredible than the first game. In the United Kingdom the Mega Drive version knocked Ecco the Dolphin off the top of the sales charts.

“Electronic Arts have managed to make the best even better. This is the finest example of golf on the Megadrive! Although it's only supposed to be an update, PGA Tour Golf II is far better than the original!”
“there's no reason why you shouldn't spend your Christmas money on what is definitely the best computer golf game going.”
“Even so, PGA TOUR Golf Il is the video golf game to beat.”
“On paper and in play, PGA Il is a near-flawless, if only slightly revamped, 8-meg links monster. … With little or no Genesis competition, PGA II bags the grand prize purse!”

Before you buy
Among US carts it is one of the cheapest. Loose, the European cart usually costs somewhat more than the US one, but a complete European copy usually costs much less. The Japanese cart usually costs noticeably more and has a different cartridge shape, so it needs an adapter or two plastic tabs removed from a Western console's slot. The cartridge saves to a battery inside it, so check that a save holds; a replaced battery is a normal repair, not a sign of a fake.
