![]() Neither in that series, nor in tour-based golf video games, has a player gotten any kind of a penalty for playing every event on the schedule, even though pros decline them all the time for legitimate reasons. Breakpoint Studio/Bigben InteractiveĬarried off properly, it’ll be a nice distinction for a sport that hasn’t had a simulation quality game since 2011’s Top Spin 4. Breakpoint consulted with Boris Vallejo, a French Tennis Federation coach, and three others to construct a realistic cadence and set of choices for the virtual professional in Tennis World Tour. More realistically, players plan and use smaller events to prepare for bigger ones - for example, the Italian Open to head into the French Open (both on clay surface) - and also choose or avoid surfaces according to their created pro’s attributes. There is no way any pro could participate in the entire series. There are 73 events in 2018 that count toward a player’s tour ranking in the Association of Tennis Professionals there are 61 on the Women’s Tennis Association’s tour schedule.

In Tennis World Tour, the fatigue of travel, along with the endurance of a long schedule, will require the player to plan their tour events and strategically skip those that don’t suit them. In sports video games, players usually bypass events because the season is very long (MLB The Show, at 162 games) or the opponent is uninteresting (the Sacramento Kings in December, NBA 2K18). ![]() Tennis World Tour, coming in May from Breakpoint Studios and Bigben Interactive, will make a player plan their schedule, just like a real world pro. But none have deliberately involved skipping an event as a strategic choice. If you play Tennis World Tour’s career mode, be prepared to suffer from jet lag.Ĭareer modes across every type of sport represented in a video game have all featured rest (MLB The Show, for pitchers) recovery ( EA Sports UFC 3, between fights) or injury systems. ![]()
