Tennis World Tour 2 will serve up some next-gen tennis on the PlayStation 5 in March 2021, publisher Nacon has announced. The re-released sports sim – already available on the PlayStation 4 – will include the base game, additional content, and gameplay improvements. There’s no word on what the latter will entail, unfortunately. It also doesn’t sound like this will be a free upgrade for existing owners, but we’ll check with the company for clarity.
This all serves as the beginning of a series of major updates for the tennis title, made available as part of the Annual Pass. Beginning today, you’ll be able to play as Sofia Kenin and Karolina Plíšková, while Juan Martin Del Potro and Victoria Azarenka will be added in January. Then in March, there’ll be a new tournament, six new players, new stadiums, new equipment, and much more, alongside that aforementioned next-gen edition.
We liked Tennis World Tour 2 quite a bit in our review, but did think it could benefit from a technical improvement or two. Here’s what we wrote about the PS4 version earlier in the year: "There’s inconsistency to the presentation, with some awkward animations, physics, and art direction decisions – but the campaign is entertaining and online play will add longevity. As it stands, it’s the best tennis game currently available on the PS4, but there’s still room for further improvement here."

Great, I think this game will be a lot better on PS5.
Each to their own but I've been playing this recently, and don't think it's much of an improvement on TWT1 so far. I'm not the world's greatest gamer but it just doesn't play great to me, compared to the original TopSpin which was out 15 + years ago.
Ooh, I do like Del Potro so that’s a big plus for me. The game isn’t as good as the tennis games of old but it’s better than getting no game at all.
these games dont live up to the hype. AO tennis 2 is a tad better in my opinion. I still play topspin4 in my ps3
