The Game Pass announcements are coming thick and fast today! The latest is for Matchpoint: Tennis Championships, which is a brand-new tennis game that will be launching with Game Pass on July 7th, 2022.
Matchpoint: Tennis Championships is described as a "modern take on tennis," prioritising tactical realism and "featuring a true-to-life on-court experience." It's being developed by Torus Games, known in recent years for the likes of the Praetorians HD Remaster and PAW Patrol: On A Roll, amongst other things.
It's fair to say we haven't seen many great tennis games over the past decade, but the reception to Matchpoint: Tennis Championships' free demo on Steam has been promising so far, so let's hope this one is a grand slam for the genre.
The season starts now – grab your racket and become the world’s next tennis champion! Your opponent is on the court and the crowd waits for a promising challenger for the grand finale… Are you ready for Matchpoint?
Matchpoint: Tennis Championships combines slick character animations, authentic ball physics and enhanced player control to replicate the realistic rhythm of the game - every swing and hit feeling unique and satisfying.

Yes!!!! I have this in my wishlist it's a great addition. Hopefully it lives upto expectations
I wish Xbox would bring back XSN. I liked the Top Spin game, and the whole leaderboard system they had for the sports games. It was a really great idea.
Currently I'm enjoying Tennis World Tour 2, it's the better modern tennis game but that's not a great accomplishment, so I will try Matchpoint, can't say no to a free game
I loved World tour on top spin 3
I hope it plays like virtua tennis
I've been having a play of this on Steam (the demo) and it's definitely rough around the edges in terms of presentation, but the gameplay feels smooth and enjoyable for the most part.
Looking forward to it!
Only reason I bought a ps3 recently is to play topspin4, hope this is half as good
Dang. Art direction looks fabulous. Somehow manages to skirt the uncanny valley by combining realistic animation with stylized visuals. Can't wait to try!
Really hope this is good. Hasn’t been a good tennis game in ages!
