This is a fun game. I haven't played the previous years games. I am confused why all the bowlers seem to be exactly the same except for their animations. Why are there no stats for the bowlers? What's the point in licensing all of them when they all play exactly the same with the only difference being that they have different balls and whether they are left handed or right handed? What really confuses me is a career mode in most sports games consists of improving your bowlers stats over time, with this game you start out just as good as the pros and the only point in the career mode is to collect more balls and cosmetic items that do nothing. Also why do we not get to select different weights for the balls? There is also some really weird animations that the bowlers do that make them look like they are imitating a pregnant Frankenstein's monster. I wish I could recommend to only buy this only on sale. I don't think it is worth the full price. Like I said the game is fun, but I feel this is a very minimum effort from the developers. I hope PBA 2028 or 2029 continues to improve and actually makes every bowler unique with different stats and a career mode where you have to build character up by improving stats. Developers please check out Ten Pin Alley for the Playstation. That game gave each bowler three ratings: power, accuracy, and spin. Also you could choose your ball weight and type. Please add some professional female bowlers next time. I think if FarSight Studios adds these things to the game and continues to expand on the career mode this game could end up being the best bowling game series ever.

As someone who has bowled on these PBA patterns often and an aspiring PBA Regional bowler, these are the best bowling physics in a video game. And the selection of pros who did their own motion capturing adds a nice touch to the game, especially those who had not appeared in previous PBA Pro Bowling games. In my career character, I have purchased all the bowling balls in the game that I own in real life, and treating it as a simulator rather than just a game. I would love to try to take my time experimenting in this game onto the lanes and use it as a tool to improve my own bowling skills. The real-time oil breakdown is a really nice touch and helps show why professional bowling isn't as easy as it seems. Shoutouts to Keven Williams for having his music on the main menu, I've taken a deeper look at his music because of this game's release. And I gotta support my fellow lefties! One thing I'd love to see implemented in a future update or installment is a greater distinction between solid/pearl/hybrid coverstock types. Like instead of just a 1 to 10 overall strength rating, display how early/late the ball wants to change directions down-lane, and how fast/slow the ball reacts to friction. For example, the Jackal Ghost and the Black Widow Mania are two very different kind of balls in real life, but both have a 9.0 hook rating in the game, and they feel virtually identical. Which is not a bad thing, but it's a suggestion to give that extra bit of realism and gameplay depth. Thank you to the dev team for being super passionate on the project, and for hosting the bowling community while hyping the game up on Discord. I hope this game gets the love it deserves.

10 / 10 As a district bowler, transitioning from real life to the game feels surprisingly good. The mechanics capture a lot of what makes bowling enjoyable, and once you understand how the system works, shots begin to feel rewarding and skill based rather than random. There is definitely a learning curve, especially when it comes to the controls. On PC, the default keybindings feel kinda awkward, and the lack of remapping options makes adjusting harder than it needs to be. Because of this, the game feels like it was primarily designed for console play. It registers inputs as an Xbox or PlayStation controller, and unfortunately, neither PC nor console currently allows keybinding customization. For the Devs: That said, the core gameplay is solid and shows a lot of potential. It’s impressive how well real world bowling concepts translate into a video game. Since the game just launched, some rough edges are understandable. With future updates, especially improved control customization O_O this could become an even better experience. Keep up the hard work! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit 12/20 For people struggling with the game and needed a little guild to get started, here's a little guild for all the keys you'll need to get going :D PBA Pro Bowling 2026 PC Keybindings -Character Movement- A | Left D | Right -Ball Placement- (Aim at 20-21 Degrees) Option may vary depending on ball + oil patterns *Step #1* Left Arrow | Aim Direction Left Right Arrow | Aim Direction Right *Step #2* Hold Left Click A | Left for Hook Directions D | Right for Hook Directions *Step #3* Wait for White Ring to Hit Blue Ring (Still Holding Right Click) To Release | Swipe Up with your Mouse (Release Right Click)

I've only just started my bowling career, but I can see so much heart in this game ⋆˙⟡♡ The character creator has a decent amount of options, it is pretty funny watching the pins bounce around, and there are a lot of matches to beat. So, for a non-cartoonish sports game, this is pretty cool~ Maybe this or a future edition will have more bowling alleys and prettier UI.
