The British Masters was last on the tour schedule in 2008. It increases the number of events staged in Britain in 2015 to seven.
European Tour chief executive George O'Grady says it ''underlines the appetite among our membership for tournament golf in Britain.''
Top-ranked Rory McIlroy and former British Open champion Paul Lawrie are also supporting events on the European Tour this year.
