About

Actua Tennis lets you build a custom player and take them through global tournaments in a 3D sports setting. The game emphasizes shot variety with drop, lob and smash mechanics across singles and doubles matches. Up to four players can join in locally with options for human or AI opponents. Motion capture informs player animations while Pat Cash's commentary adds authenticity to matches. The ability to personalize your athlete and the range of court strategies stand out. Though the 1998 release shows its age graphically, the core mechanics hold up for quick competitive sessions. Community feedback highlights the satisfying shot physics and replay features that let you review every point from multiple angles. A straightforward sports title with enough depth for casual matches.
