With this update, users can continue enjoying free basic gameplay while now having access to a subscription plan that unlocks all in-app content. For a monthly fee of $8.99 (or $89.90 annually), users gain full access to the following features:

- Rounds on 8 real-world golf courses - 13 volumetric swing recordings from 5 professional golfers (※1) - 6 targeted lesson functions addressing specific player challenges

Background and Value of Subscription Introduction

Recent advancements in VR technology have enabled realistic sports training experiences regardless of location or weather. 'EnonoGolf Personal' utilizes photogrammetry (※2) to create 3D mesh models of real golf courses from drone-captured aerial imagery. By offering this objective and high-precision course data via subscription, the company aims to improve amateur golfers’ course management skills and practical swing techniques.

Detailed Features Unlocked by Subscription

1. Rounds on 8 Real-World Golf Courses

Players can now play on the following 8 courses (totaling 12 holes), experiencing terrain elevation, hazard placement, and other environmental details based on actual course data:

- Itoigawa Country Club (Niigata Prefecture) - Kisarazu Higashi Country Club (Chiba Prefecture) - Utsunomiya Country Club (Tochigi Prefecture) - Yaita Country Club (Tochigi Prefecture) - Kinugawa Country Club (Tochigi Prefecture) - Umenosato Golf Club (Gunma Prefecture) - Ryosen Golf Club (Mie Prefecture) - Iruma Country Club (Saitama Prefecture)

2. 360-Degree Volumetric Swing Viewing from Professional Golfers (13 New Swings Added)

This feature allows users to view detailed swing motions of real professional golfers from any angle in 3D space.

In addition to the currently free driver swings of players Nana Suganuma and Masashi Kawasaki, this update adds 13 new swing recordings—including practical iron and wood shots—and introduces swing data from 3 additional professional golfers (totaling 15 swings). Combined with existing free swings, users can now analyze swings from a wider range of perspectives.

- Nana Suganuma: 2 swings (7-iron / approach wedge) ※ Driver swing remains free to view - Masashi Kawasaki: 2 swings (5-wood / 7-iron) ※ Driver swing remains free to view - Yui Noritomi: 3 swings (driver / 5-wood / 7-iron) - Aikako Suzuki: 3 swings (driver / 5-wood / 7-iron) - Miu Tsutsui: 3 swings (driver / 5-wood / 7-iron)

3. Six Practical Lesson Functions Targeting Player Challenges

Six specialized training modules have been introduced to address specific player issues. Intuitive visual feedback within the VR environment supports efficient form improvement. Additionally, the 'Swing Trace' feature now includes 13 new reference swing data sets.

- Slice Correction: Visualizes whether the downswing is coming from outside, targeting the swing path that causes slicing. - Keeping the Head Still: A virtual 'wall' appears beside the player’s head. Users check if contact occurs before impact, helping master proper axis rotation and head stability. - Correcting Hand Lift: A virtual object is placed at the hand position at address. Users verify if hands return accurately to this position at impact, preventing hand lift errors. - Extending the Club Path: The club is virtually lengthened, allowing users to feel the correct swing plane and club path by swinging without body interference. - Raising the Tee Height: Tee height can be set up to waist level. This helps develop proper face rotation and level swing sensation through horizontal swing practice. - Impact Zone Training: Precisely analyzes clubhead path and face stability in the impact zone (business zone), aiming to improve consistent ball striking and directional control.

Pricing and Future Updates

- Monthly Plan: $8.99 - Annual Plan: $89.90

※ Japanese yen payment is supported. Actual pricing may vary based on exchange rates at the time of purchase. Please check the store purchase screen for details.

Future Updates: For one year after launch, new courses will be added monthly for subscribers—each month featuring at least one new course.

Glossary

(※1) Volumetric Swing (Volumetric Video): A technology that captures people or spaces using multiple cameras and reconstructs them as 3D data. Users can view professional swings from any angle (front, back, overhead, etc.) in 3D within the VR environment.

(※2) Photogrammetry: A technique that captures continuous images of a subject (e.g., a golf course) from various angles using drones, then analyzes and integrates the digital images to create high-resolution 3D models (3D mesh). In 'EnonoGolf Personal,' the generated mesh is optimized in Blender and implemented into the Unity engine.
