Sega have announced that Virtua Tennis 3 is being developed for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Due for release in Spring 2007, Sega promise the game will have 'new levels of realism never thought possible on a home console system.'

Virtua Tennis 3 will boast photo realistic graphics, and players will also move and react in the same way as their human counterparts.

“This is shaping up to be an outstanding title - a genuine next generation sports game,” commented Matt Woodley, Creative Director of SEGA. “Instant appeal and all the best of the VT brand is being added to an array of new gameplay features. Virtua Tennis 3 provides a must have in-depth experience - though I'd say the graphics alone are reason to buy and the quality is so sharp and clear you can even see the veins on the players necks!”
