The game also introduces all-new Fever Rackets: Equip characters with a selection of 30 new rackets, each with its own unique abilities, get a rally going to build up the Fever Guage and unleash powerful Fever Shots!

Everyone from seasoned pros to first timers can enjoy new and returning game modes, including Swing Mode, where up to four players can execute each shot type using intuitive motion controls, and Trial Towers mode, where players take on a series of challenges as they make their way to the top. Players can also gather in online modes like Online Room for casual play, or Ranked Matches to vie for tennis supremacy! Don’t forget to check out Adventure mode and play through a storyline involving mysterious monsters turning Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Wario and Waluigi into babies.

Mario Tennis Fever also supports local GameShare functionality, allowing up to four players to take to the court together using just one game.
