Smash Court Tennis 3 invites you to take on 16 of the world's best tennis players in single player and multiplayer games, choosing from seven exciting modes, ranging from detailed Pro Tours to unique mini-games like Bomb Tennis and Pac-Man Tennis. Design your own rising star with more than twice as many customizable parts and attributes as previous games in the series. Rally against your friends through game sharing, going head-to-head with a single UMD in versus and mini-game modes.

The first in the revered tennis simulation series for the new console generation, Smash Court Tennis 3 for Xbox 360 tests the player's skills against 16 of the world's finest international tennis players. From established stars such as world number one Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova, Rafael Nadal and Martina Hingis, to rising talents including Italy's Andreas Seppi and Nicole Vaidisova of the Czech Republic, each player has their own strengths and weaknesses which come into play on the game's painstakingly rendered courts.

Making the most of the power of Xbox 360, Smash Court Tennis 3 boasts enhanced graphics including improved player animations, realistic shadows, skin shaders and High Dynamic Range rendering which combine to deliver a greater level of realism and immersion for the player. A host of customizing options allows players to choose rackets, shoes, hairstyles, skin tone and clothing to create their own unique star of the courts. New gameplay includes a system, which lets all players, no matter what their skill level, benefit quickly from the powerful shots and finely honed skills of the star players.

Gameplay modes include Tutorial, Arcade, Pro-Tour, and Exhibition mode where up to four players can go head to head offline. The game also features an online mode allowing players to play online via Xbox Live online entertainment network. In addition to Xbox Live voice chat and rankings, players can take on opponents in online tournaments and in a range of different matches. Online doubles matches let players team up side by side for a long distance match against another pair, bringing the action and interaction alive like never before.

Key Features:

  • Challenge the Best: Play with Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Justine Henin, and other tennis stars, and master their unique playing style!
  • Real Life Tennis Experience: Tour the world with your favorite players on more than a dozen real-world courts and championships
