Sega have announce that Virtua Tennis 4 will be making its way onto the Xbox 360 and the Wii in 2011. As previously announced, the game will also be available for PlayStation 3 featuring Move compatibility and 3D technology.
Virtua Tennis 4 features the world’s top stars such as world No.1 Rafael Nadal, 16-time major champion Roger Federer and UK No.1 Andy Murray. Joining them for the first time are seven new champions making their debut to the series, enabling players to take on the likes of Juan Martín Del Potro, Fernando Gonzalez, Caroline Wozniacki and Laura Robson.
“Virtua Tennis 4 is a huge push forward for the much loved SEGA series,” commented Gary Knight, Senior Vice President of Marketing at SEGA of Europe and SEGA of America. “New technology has allowed for the development of innovative styles of gameplay, meaning Virtua Tennis can reach a level of realism not seen before in the tennis genre.”
Virtua Tennis 4 sees a totally new World Tour career mode designed to encourage replay value with an element of off-court fame. Each decision affects a player’s career path meaning no two careers will ever be the same, while a brand new on-court feature makes for even more dramatic singles and doubles matches. Players can build up their Match Momentum gauge over the course of a match and revel in their improved ability as their players grow in confidence.
The new Online Mode offers an invigorating experience with the choice of a competitive and casual area to suit all players. This new hub promises a more competitive matchmaking system and online tournaments geared to seeking out the ultimate Virtua Tennis Champion.
Virtua Tennis 4 is developed by the original Virtua Tennis Team in Japan and will be available in spring 2011 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii.
