    If you weren’t sold on Tennis World Tour 2 previously, Nacon’s next-gen upgrade won’t change your mind, but there’s an enjoyable simulator here and the Complete Edition is the best way to play. If you’re a serious tennis fan, this one comes recommended.

    New arenas, and the addition of international tournaments like the ATP Cup, complement existing events like the French Open making for a much more complete overall tennis experience than before. We’re still not particularly fond of the cards system, which allows you to assemble decks of stat-boosting skills to play at opportune moments, although we understand the title’s intent of capturing those superhuman feats real-world players seem capable of when under the kosh. The vastly improved loading times do massively improve the flow of the release, while the overall image quality makes the many arenas a lot more visually appealing.

    Tennis World Tour 2 Complete Edition offers minor improvements, but it still remains a game not suited for casuals. Hardcore fans on the other hand will likely spend many hours with the game and will appreciate the new arenas, international tournaments, added players and gear that this edition brings to the table.

    Tennis World Tour 2 on the PlayStation 5 is the definitive way to experience this realistic simulation title. While it does have quite a few flaws considering the package, there’s still a lot to love for those looking for a tennis game with a learning curve.

    On the whole, there are enough changes for the better to elevate Tennis World Tour 2 from being a sub-par to a decent tennis game. Graphically it’s still not going to wow players, and there’s still some work to be done on the animation and AI side if Tennis World Tour 3 ever comes to fruition, but Tennis World Tour 2 is at least now somewhat enjoyable. Throw in a considerable amount of extra content and next-gen consoles not only now have their first tennis game, but also one that’s worth considering.

    Unfortunately, even the different modes, slick visuals and silky-smooth frame rate can’t make up for the fact that World Tennis Tour 2 Complete Edition’s core experience, playing tennis, is a huge let-down. It is extremely disappointing that Big Ant Studios has failed to adequately address the basic gameplay shortcomings that have been around since the first Tennis World Tour back in 2018. As a fan of the sport I badly wanted this game to be better, but Tennis World Tour 2 Complete Edition will make even the most die-hard tennis fanatic want to smash their racquet and head to the dressing room.

    A hardly noticeable PS5 facelift does little to elevate one of the least fun tennis games we've ever played.

    Good God is this game unplayable. The controls seem to be very unoptimized. Any shot that you try to go for just doesn't work and if it doesGood God is this game unplayable. The controls seem to be very unoptimized. Any shot that you try to go for just doesn't work and if it does come of the racket the timing will either be off or the computer will hit an objectively better shot causing you to lose the point. It was more fun to use the character create we than to play the actual game. That is a sad reality coming from someone who actually likes tennis.… Full Review »

    The very first thing it does when you boot up is forces you to go through a painfully slow clickable walkthrough on how their micro-transactions work and overly complex perk system works. Great start y'all.
    The career mode looked promising even though the graphics looked like something from the PS3 era...on a PS5 no less.
    I proceed to get absolutely demolished on the easiest setting in my first few exhibition matches as the AI smashes shots in corners and makes it pure luck to get to a shot as if I'm a goalie trying to make a PK save and just guessing which way to go.
    All the shots seem to perform similarly other than the lob shot.
    It's nearly impossible to run up to the net to volley and if you do, the AI smashes a shot passed you.
    The gameplay tutorials are basically useless and have the same slow, click-through message boxes as previous tutorials.
    This entire game is borderline unplayable. I seriously can't see how anyone can give this anything other than a 0 rating. Not sure what Sony was thinking when they had this be one of their monthly PS+ titles.    … Full Review »
