Our tennis stars have the opportunity to battle on a range of courts based on top global locations: you'll be honouring the Queen in the lush finely cut lawns of London, brushing dirt across the heat-strained clay courts of Paris and duelling on the more secluded training grounds. We're also treated to their strengths, and ultimately weaknesses too - Federer's the all-round precision beast whose strokes generally send balls where you’d like them to go, Nadal's a powerhouse who's a touch clunky on his feet and Murray climaxes after half an hour on court, offering a greater contrast between players compared to past iterations. It's an overall meaty roster that could have benefited from a few more veteran faces, but it does offer enough variety and covers most bases for tennis fans. There's a handful of female pros on offer too, lead by Venus Williams, Maria Sharapova and the recently inducted British hopeful Laura Robson. There's a whole host of familiar faces returning to the court - the likes of world champion Roger Federer, beefy muscle cake Rafael Nadal, Serbian pro Novak Djokovic and Britain’s number one Andy Murray. Simply forget everything you know about a decent tennis game and prepare for a bumpy ride. Familiar with the likes of Top Spin and Mario Tennis? Yes? Great. It's also the first time SEGA's team have worked on the Virtua Tennis series on Nintendo's platform, resulting in a very mixed affair. The return to the mainline numbered entries also sees original developer SEGA's AM3 taking the helm after allowing the UK based Sumo Digital craft a handful of tennis sims, including Virtua Tennis 2009 and SEGA Superstars Tennis.
