It’s the big return of TopSpin! The legendary tennis video game franchise returns 13 years after TopSpin 4 with the new TopSpin 2K25 was published yesterday. A complete tennis simulation game that we are happy to see again, and one of the strengths is the roster, in other words the professional players that are part of it.
The new Spanish hope Carlos Alcaraz or the legend Serena Williams are part of it for example. But, some sports monsters are missing, and here’s why.
Djoko and Nadal absent from TopSpin 2k25
TopSpin may be making a big comeback, but it’s not the only tennis game on the market this year. TIEBREAKin early access since last January, the official tennis game of the ATP and the WTA, and Novak Djokovic shares the bill with Coco Gauff. It is very clear the personality that carries the game, with even a game mode completely dedicated to him, the “Novak Djokovic Slam Challenge”, where you can “relive the key moments and highlights of the biggest matches of Novak Djokovic’s career”.
The game also offers a substantial schedule, with sports monsters present in both games like Roger Federer, but there is also new playerslike Djoko but also Rafael Nadal, Jannik Siner or Stefanos Tsitsipas.
The war of the tennis games
TIEBREAK, whose official release is for the end of this year, has many arguments to compete with TopSpin. The game promises “28 licensed professional tennis players, 9 ATP Masters 1000 tournament courts, 8 WTA 1000 tournament courts” etc “Ultimate roster with over 100 professional players”.
TopSpin 2k25 for its part is a complete game and already officially released, but also 25 players ready to use, the main courts of the 4 grand slam tournaments represented to perfection, and other major tournaments like the Masters 1000 you can try to win. 2K also promises to further expand this list over the course of the year.
2024 then marks the war of tennis games in an unprecedented way, although we haven’t heard of TopSpin since 2011 on our PS3 and Xbox 360. A rivalry set to last for years to come?
