V Tennis is a 3D tennis game played from a third-person perspective with ten different camera angles to choose from. It plays like other games of its kind and allows the player to do a number of different shots, including slices, lobs, top spins, drop shots, and smashes. The game has two main modes: individual matches against human or AI-controlled opponents, and tournaments. Matches can be singles or doubles, and in multiplayer, players can compete against each other or cooperate with the computer.
The game features 16 tennis players to choose from, each with different stats in five categories: service, forehand, backhand, footwork, and sprint. There are six different courts to choose from: stadium, indoor, N.Y., Fiji, Kilauea, and Japan, as well as three surface types: hard, clay, and lawn. The game also has an edit mode where the abilities and look of the tennis players can be modified.
