The value story

The lowest price on record is $14.99, set in May 2025. It has been discounted 21 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 2 weeks ago.

It is pricier than 73 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 95 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Tennis Elbow 4 ($29.99, scores 86) and AO Tennis 2 ($49.99, scores 26) both outscore it.

22 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written July 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 101 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 17 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 19 percent of the 270 reviews written there were positive, against 54 percent overall, and those are 13 percent of everything written about it.

What players say

Great or maybe the best tennis game so far... Hope to get updates on new players
iamjblRecommendedafter 13hAug 2026Read on Steam
The game is simply too buggy to enjoy. I was mainly looking forward to playing MyCareer, but I got stuck because the AI would stop serving. Sometimes my own player would also become unable to serve, with the controls completely unresponsive no matter what keys I pressed. I tried looking for solutions and checking the community, but there doesn't seem to be a reliable fix for this issue. It's extremely frustrating...
