I'd take a new Virtua Tennis. I'm not so into the more realistic versions.

I don't but tennis usually translates well into video games. I can't stand golf but I'll be first in line to buy a golf videogame.

Supposedly the EA tennis game a few years back was supposed to get a nice Xbox One X treatment, I would settled for that in the meantime.

It does say alpha footage, maybe the final release will be better. Hopefully we can get a good tennis game from either this game or the AO tennis game.

They need to make this for the Switch but with a boutique publisher, maybe they concentrate on the consoles with the biggest installed bases.

Wonder if the Switch has even been released in the Czech Republic yet.

Ah, it is listed for the Switch as well as PS4, Xbox and PC.

But will they have multiplayer online for the Switch too?

Yikes...that looks like crap.

Horrible, clunky movement and bad ball physics are something no tennis game can overcome. Very low expectations now.

That better not be representative of the final quality.

Although the gameplay appears to be smooth, the actual physics of hitting the ball is a bit awkward. There’s this floatiness on every shot that I am concern about. I want to distinguish a topspin shot, a flat one and a slicer.

It does seem to look and play better than AO Tennis though. We shall see...

Remaining optimistic that this will be a good game. Took up tennis about 6 years ago, and of course there hasn't been a tennis game released since that time, so I'm hopeful this will be good enough to warrant a purchase. If not, I'll just play on real har-tru! :)

Was looking forward to this game but after reading all of the negative comments throughout the day, going to have to pass on this, looks like it is a half finished game with subpar graphics, online play to be added later in a patch, terrible effort. Was really looking forward to a next gen tennis game so I may end up getting the AO tennis game instead as the videos of the gameplay for it look much better.

Very disappointed in the two tennis games overall. I had high hopes for World Tennis Tour, but it doesn't look like it plays a good game of tennis, where AO looks like it does a decent job. But I don't think AO looks like it should be a $50 game either. Once AO drops to $20, I'll pick it up. Hopefully WTT will be in GamePass soon.
