AO International Tennis is the most advanced, customizable tennis game ever produced. It combines fully licensed, photo realistic players with a decade’s worth of historical shot data that enhances their AI so that they play just like their real-life counterparts, right down to shot selection at any given point of time in a match.

AO International Tennis will be the first tennis game to be enhanced with PlayFace, Big Ant’s in-depth character creator software that gives users the ability to create photorealistic likenesses in-game, and put your real face directly in the action through Big Ant Studios’ photogrammetry technology.

The Decal Creator allows players to experience Comprehensive Clothing and Logo creation giving you the opportunity to be “sponsored” by your workplace or favorite company.

Replicate any kind of tennis fashion that you might have seen right into the game. Download and share your favorite creations through the community, which is continuously growing with player-generated content.

Key Features:

These creations can then be uploaded to the Big Ant servers and downloaded with full cross-platform support to the PS4 or Xbox One versions of AO International Tennis. This app is completely free to use and is available now, meaning that fans can get themselves on the servers and ready for download from day one.
