Just Golf is a networked sports-action game where players utilize golf to score points and disrupt opponents. Armed with three clubs and an assortment of weaponized golf balls, players compete in a chaotic 2v2 setting. The team that makes the most holes is crowned champion of this combative variation of golf.

Each player can choose from a selection of four ability balls that best fit their play style. Players are equipped with an offensive ball to disrupt their opponents and a support ball to aid their teammates. Coordinating ability balls with your teammates will result in unique ways to claim victory. On top of choosing two ability balls, all players are equipped with a set of homing balls that lock onto enemies midair when using a driver.

Players club out their differences at Plunder Reef, an underwater-themed hybrid of golf and mini-golf. This course features five holes that present unique challenges, such as a ring of mechanical fish circling a hole or a hole in a broken pirate ship guarded by a menacing octopus. Players can golf around Plunder Reef during the day or night, giving them two ways to enjoy this aquatic-themed course.
