Based on screenshots Nintendo has released regarding the update, it looks like there will be different ranks related to ‘Standard’ and ‘Speed Golf,’ as well as whether you’re using button or motion controls. The update is set to be available later today, August 5th.
As far as golf games — especially Mario Golf titles — go, Super Rush is one of the best released in the last few years. There’s a deceptive level of depth to Camelot’s latest golfing epic, and it’s great to see an update for the game already being released.
Nintendo says that more updates are coming to Mario Golf: Super Rush “later this year.”
