What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Our game features a vast online open world with elements of character development, esports, and simulation management. The competitive gameplay is built entirely on physics, including character limb dynamics, seamlessly integrating three core aspects: character progression, physics-based tennis matches, and fast, precise multiplayer synchronization. This ensures exceptional control and gameplay value, allowing for the effortless execution of realistic tactics and strategies.

We aim to bridge and redefine the genres of simulation and esports, creating a grand sports universe that combines the best of both worlds. We firmly believe that an open and humble approach—listening to and incorporating player feedback—is the key to achieving our ambitious vision. The player community is essential to us, helping us balance the gameplay, refine the design, and ultimately deliver a seamless, flexible, and comprehensive gaming experience.

With Early Access, we can showcase and discuss our game openly, inviting players to experience the development process and actively shape and improve the game.

Additionally, Early Access enables us as developers to work in the healthiest way possible. It allows us to manage our time more flexibly, avoid some of the pitfalls often encountered in game development, and ensure we have the time needed to polish the game experience to perfection.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We anticipate we’ll be in Early Access for about a year, but this can change depending on the community’s response and feedback.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“In the final version of the game, we plan to introduce more diverse development pathways for character skills and tactics, closely integrated with the open-world club system. On the simulation management side, we aim to include expanded options for managing teams and players, offering deeper and more dynamic operational modes.

Additionally, we plan to enhance the tactical aspects of matches, making them more accurately tied to players' individual attributes and abilities. These improvements will create a more seamless experience, allowing players to fully immerse themselves in the complete journey—from managing a club, to training players, to competing in matches.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, the game's core features and gameplay loop are complete and run very smoothly. The hitting and movement in matches feel solid and engaging, with various character outfits and hairstyles available to choose from. Multiplayer functionality is fully implemented, supporting up to 4 players. Each match delivers a completely unique gameplay experience.

We are taking the remaining time heading into our Early Access release to further flesh out and polish an array of enemies, character stats, optimize the match gameplay loop, and establish clear starting for players.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We do plan to raise the price once Early Access ends, and while nothing is definitive, it’s possible that the price will go up at some point during Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to post monthly devblog updates on our Steam page, be highly active in the forums and social media platforms. This includes regularly sharing GIFs, videos, new gameplay features, behind-the-scenes content, and live streams.

We place great importance on communicating with players and aim to build trust throughout this process. At this stage, we are particularly eager to gather feedback from esports enthusiasts, casual players, and professional tennis fans, integrating their valuable insights into the game’s development. By directly involving players in the development process, we want them to know that the feedback they submit through forums or other channels will have a tangible impact on the game’s evolution—something we deeply value.”

About This Game

Tennis Life is a highly realistic tennis game built around real-time PvP competition.

The game features a fully physics-based simulation system. Ball behavior is determined by players’ body movement, acceleration, and realistic force transfer through the racket — not simple aiming or stat-based calculations. Every swing, footwork decision, and positioning choice directly affects ball speed, trajectory, and placement.

Real-Time PvP Where Skill and Tactics Decide Everything

  • Fully real-time online matches with no turn-based or automated resolution

  • Cross-platform online play across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android

  • Match outcomes are determined by player skill, positioning, and tactical decisions — not raw stats

The Only Real-Time Online 2v2 Doubles Tennis Experience

Tennis Life is currently the only tennis game on the market that supports real-time online 2v2 doubles matches.
Players must coordinate positioning, rotations, offense, and defense with their partner, delivering an authentic doubles tennis experience with real tactical depth.

Player-Driven Character Development

  • Freely choose how your player develops their technical strengths

  • Fully customizable skill trees and physical training paths

  • Development choices are reflected precisely in real-time matches, shaping your player’s playstyle and tactical strengths

Every player grows into a distinct competitor with a unique style.

Manager and Club Gameplay

Beyond the court, players can act as professional managers running a tennis club:

  • Construct functional facilities for training and operations

  • Recruit players and coaches (played by real users)

  • Form long-term communities centered around clubs

  • Earn prize money through competitive matches as the club’s primary income

In the future, clubs will be able to host their own tournaments, further expanding the professional tennis ecosystem.

A Real-Time, Physics-Driven Tennis World

Tennis Life is not a power-based or auto-resolved tennis game.
Every match is played live, governed by physics, and decided by player skill and strategy.
