Video game publisher Sony has announced that Hot Shots Golf, which was originally launched on the PlayStation Vita handheld on the day it was out, will also arrive on the PlayStation 3 home console on November 22 on the Japanese market.

The new version of the game will include support for the PlayStation Move motion tracking system, designed to allow the player even more accuracy when trying to get the more tricky shots.

The PlayStation 3 version of Hot Shots Golf will include cross-platform play with the Vita and all the downloadable content launched for the game will be available for free.

There are also two new game modes: Slot Mode, where players get boosts from a slot machine, and Minna no Short Course, which is linked to shorter experiences.

Sony has not stated whether it also plans to move Hot Shots Golf to the PS3 on Western markets or when it might do so.
