Now that the appointment is set for April 26,
TopSpin 2K25
dwells a little longer on its gameplay. And to show a little of what the game has in its stomach, head to the exhibition mode to see Roger Federer and Daniil Medvedev face off on the Phillippe-Chatrier court at Roland Garros. In a few seconds, we are on the clay court to experience the match.
In TopSpin 2K25, players can play in 4 different game modes. Exhibition mode allows you to face any opponent on any terrain, with flexible rules. The MyCAREER mode focuses on Grand Slam tournaments by offering the opportunity to develop your own character. Finally, there are two competitive modes to compete against other players, the World Tour and the 2K Tour.
In all these modes, 48 different terrains are available. These are the most emblematic courts of the different tennis tournaments which are held each year. We thus find the great classics of the Grand Slam, the Davis Cup or even the ATP Masters 1000. In addition, whatever the type of court, grass or clay, each shot will leave its mark forever.
At the heart of the gameplay TopSpin 2K25
With this new iteration of the license, timing has become the key word in gameplay in TopSpin 2K25. During a hit, a precision bar is activated. You must then interact with the action button when the progress bar reaches the green zone so as not to miss your shot. Hangar 13 therefore adopts the strategy of “easy to learn, hard to master”
with this title. A precision which will also be necessary during services, since these finally become key moments of each shot.
Everything depends on this precision bar, which emerges as the central element of the gameplay. If the animations of each player are unique to reflect the real movements of the said professional, this does not have a direct impact on the way of understanding the shots. Mastering the timing of each shot is essential to then delving into the strategic side of the game.
