Microsoft today announced that a second Links 2001 Expansion Pack will be available at retail locations throughout North America in late November 2001. Links Expansion Pack Volume 2 is the second add-on pack for Links 2001, and will be available for only $19.95 (estimated U.S. street price).
Cyber-golfers are invited to join tour pros Craig Stadler and Dan Forsman on four new courses designed for play with Links 2001 or Links Championship Edition. Stadler and Forsman join the Links pro lineup that already includes Sergio Garcia, Arnold Palmer, Annika Sorenstam, Mike Weir, Keith Clearwater, and Hidemichi Tanaka.
Links Expansion Pack Volume 2 owners will be able to line it up in the natural desert terrain of Arizona?s Stone Canyon Club or lakeside on the Robert Trent Jones Alabama Golf Trail?s Links Course at Grand National. Also, players can tee off on the newly-updated dramatic cliff-lined fairways of The Fazio Foothills Course at Barton Creek, and enjoy updated graphics on the panoramic scenery and challenge of Scottsdale?s Troon North. As an added bonus, PC golfers can enjoy Ayrshire Dunes (also known as Northern Dunes), a fictional course created with the Arnold Palmer Course Designer by Links enthusiast Mike Jones.
The Expansion Pack also includes over 300 new objects for budding architects who want to create their own courses with the Arnold Palmer Course Designer (APCD). Additionally, the Links 2001 Expansion Pack will contain the Links 2001 Course Converter that allows players to convert up to 36 Links LS courses for play with Links 2001 (courses must be previously owned), and the 1.1 update for the APCD.
Players must have Links 2001 or Links Championship Edition, available separately, in order to play the Links Expansion Pack Volume 2. The Expansion Pack is not compatible with previous versions of Links.
