New Tennis Franchise Coming From EA Sports

Having already rounded out most other sports, EA have thrown their racket onto the court, so to speak, announcing EA Vancouver are working on an EA Sports branded Tennis game that is slated to hit the Nintendo Wii first in 2009 before landing on the other platforms later on. It will also be the first EA Sports title to utilise Nintendo's new Wii MotionPlus peripheral.

EA SPORTS will bring tennis to life and allow players to experience the pressure and excitement of competing in the greatest theaters in the game, and it will be the only videogame to feature the All England Lawn Tennis Club – home of The Championships, Wimbledon. The all-new EA SPORTS tennis franchise will offer innovative ways to play, both as or against the greatest players from the past or present, letting you control the ball
and work the court like you never have before in a tennis videogame.

2K Sports and Sega might have some serious competition on their hands if this title can live up to the same quality as most other EA Sports games.
