TopSpin 2K25 for Xbox Series X|S
“Advanced gameplay mechanics, realistic physics, and immersive visuals are at the heart of TopSpin 2K25. Several playable pros in TopSpin 2K25 have a custom forehand, backhand, and serve animation that’s been fine-tuned to replicate their real-life form. On clay, sliding across will kick up dust and leave scuff marks along the ground you’ve covered while on grass the court wear becomes more noticeable as you progress through a tournament. Deliver pinpoint precision on the court with the all-new Timing Meter, and hit the perfect serve with the new Serve Mechanic.“
Whether you want to go for a drive, tee off, or smash out some rallies, Xbox has got it covered this weekend. All games are available right up until February 8th.
