Sega Reveals Virtua Tennis 4 for PS3 with Move and 3D Support

Posted August 17, 2010 by Ben Strauss

Sega announced that Virtua Tennis 4 will be coming to the PlayStation 3 in 2011. Sega promises the game will be a “more immersive, true to life tennis experience than ever before.”

Virtua Tennis 4 is a fantastic example of how our 3rd Party partners are seeing the potential not just in PlayStation Move, but also 3D,” said Simon Rutter, Senior Vice president, sales & marketing at SCEE.  “The combination of both Move and 3D offers an entirely new gaming experience and one that has the potential to completely change how people interact with their entertainment.  Virtua Tennis 4 shows how this technology can be implemented and we are very excited to be working with Sega on this.”
  
“We have always strived to provide a tennis experience that is both true to the sport and great fun to play, and we are continuing to work with Sony to make this happen”, commented Gary Knight, Senior vice president of marketing at Sega Europe and Sega America. “With Virtua Tennis 4 being developed for PlayStation Move and featuring 3D technology, the boundaries of realism in sports video games are being pushed even further.”

Virtua Tennis 4 is currently only listed for PS3; no other platforms are mentioned, but the word "exclusive" wasn't attached to the PS3 version either.
