Tactical focus and realistic gameplay

What makes Matchpoint different from other tennis video game simulators? Like Kalypso’s previous titles, this game focuses on tactical realism. You’ll have complete control of positioning and aiming; every swing and hit feels unique and satisfying. Enhanced player control combined with authentic ball physics realistically replicates a tennis match’s rhythm for a truly immersive experience.

As you play, you’ll master all the strokes and shots so you can choose the best technique for each rally. You can also study your rival’s moves, get to know their strengths and weaknesses, gaining a tactical advantage before you even pick a racket.

Play against the pros

Once you’ve customized your player, you can test your skills against tennis pros. The game features 16 real-life international tennis stars from the professional circuit, including Nick Kyrgios, Kei Nishikori, Amanda Anisimova, and two retired legends, Tommy Haas and Tim Henman.

You’ll go racket-to-racket with the pros as you compete in 65 tournaments across 26 stadiums around the globe. Each court has its own characteristics, so to succeed, you’ll need to study the arena and adapt your play style to grass, clay, and hard court, just like in real life.

Play with a friend

With the ability to take on opponents in local or online matches, you can double the fun by inviting a friend to play against you. One of the most advantageous features of Matchpoint is cross-platform gaming. If you prefer playing on your PC and your friend enjoys gaming on their Xbox, you can still hit the court together.
