Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational is an arcade sports game developed by Clap Hanz, released in 2011 for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. It marks the tenth entry in the long-running Everybody's Golf series — known in Europe under that title, where this installment is the fourth to carry it. True to the series' tradition, the game blends accessible golf mechanics with an arcade sensibility, offering a lighter, more stylized take on the sport compared to simulation-focused titles. As the series' first appearance on the PlayStation Vita, it represents a notable expansion of the franchise onto Sony's handheld hardware alongside its console counterpart. Players compete across golf courses in a format designed to be approachable without sacrificing the competitive depth that has characterized the Everybody's Golf lineup throughout its history.
