Finally, after a very long wait, the Nintendo Switch Sports version 1.3.0 is here. And why we have been waiting eagerly for it? Well, this update adds Golf to the game’s selection of playable sports.
As you may already know, this update was announced nearly two months ago and was initially planned for a fall release, sadly it got delayed until this holiday season; so yeah… we waited a fairly amount of time for it.

Details, we want details
We knew that the game will include a total of 21 holes from the Wii Sports series, as well as the eight-player online Survival Golf mode so you can play with over eight friends in local play, however, according to the 1.3.0 patch notes we also got a Shot Assist option for beginners and LAN play is now supported.
We will leave you the full patch notes below:
Golf
- Golf has been added. It can be enjoyed in all modes: Play Globally, Play Locally and Play with Friends.
- We added a Shot Assist mode in Golf to make it easier for beginners to play. To use it, go to Options → User Settings → Other. This setting only applies to Play Locally and Play with Friends.
-Please be aware that even if you have Shot Assist mode on, your setting will revert to Normal in Play Globally mode.
-The Shot Assist option in Golf Settings.
Play with Friends

Overall
- Several issues have been fixed to improve the gameplay experience.
