A Masters week nostalgia hit: classic golf games return with the late Peter Alliss' commentary

Antstream Arcade Brings Back Classic Golf Games for Masters Week - Including the Iconic Voice of Peter Alliss
London, April 2026 - As the world prepares for The Masters, Antstream Arcade - the world's largest retro game streaming platform - is celebrating the occasion by reviving a collection of classic golf titles from the era that helped redefine the sport. This new update brings together some of the most memorable golf games of the 80s and 90s, giving players a chance to revisit the titles that shaped early digital golf experiences.
The mid‐90s marked a pivotal moment in golf's global popularity. Nick Faldo's dramatic 1996 Masters victory and Tiger Woods' first PGA Tour win signalled a generational shift and a surge of new interest in the sport. It was also the year Actua Golf launched, introducing many players to the unmistakable commentary of the late Peter Alliss, whose voice became synonymous with golf broadcasting for decades. His warm, witty delivery helped define how millions experienced the game, both on television and in early sports simulations.
Now, thanks to Antstream Arcade, these classic titles are playable instantly on any device, with no downloads or specialist hardware required. Players can rediscover the charm of early golf simulations, complete with Alliss's trademark tone and the distinctive presentation style of the era.
To keep these classics relevant for modern audiences, Antstream has added two exclusive Actua Golf challenge modes alongside global, cross‐platform leaderboards. These new features introduce short‐form, competitive ways to play, offering fresh experiences that were impossible on the original hardware. For the first time, players around the world can compete directly in Actua Golf, bringing a modern twist to a much‐loved title.
Steve Cottam, CEO and Founder of Antstream Arcade, said:
"Peter Alliss shaped how millions experienced golf. Bringing his voice back during Masters week feels like the perfect tribute to an era that changed the sport forever. These games capture a moment when golf and gaming were both evolving rapidly, and we're excited to give players new ways to enjoy them."
Antstream's April update includes Actua Golf (PS1), Zany Golf (Mega Drive), and five additional classics spanning multiple platforms, further expanding the service's library of over 1,300 retro titles.
