Mario Tennis Aces is the next entry in the
Mario Tennis series and it's finally bringing back the charm that the series had long lost. After the disappointment that was Mario Tennis Ultra Smash, Nintendo and Camelot Software seem to be on their way to redemption as
Mario Tennis Aces looks better than ever.
The game is bringing back some role-playing games that haven't been seen since the Gameboy Advance versions of the game in the early 2000s, as well as introducing a story mode, all the character types, as well as flashy—and racket-breaking— power shots.
Today Nitendo has shared new character trailers for Koopa Troopa and Blooper, who will be joining the game as playable characters very soon. For players who participate in the online tournaments held by Nintendo, Koopa Troopa and Blooper will be available sooner.
Players who participate in the
Mario Tennis Aces online tournament between the
1st and 31st of July will receive Koopa Troopa early, as well as players who participate between the
1st and 31st of August will receive Blooper before players who choose not to participate. Both characters will be available for free later on so anyone that doesn't participate in the tournament will get the characters no matter what.
Unleash an arsenal of shots and strategies in all-out tennis battles with friends, family, and fan-favorite Mushroom Kingdom characters. Whether you play locally, online, or using simple motion controls, intense rallies await!
Mario Tennis Aces will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch on the 22nd of June.
