Developed by Camelot Software Planning and published by Nintendo for the Switch, Mario Tennis Aces was released worldwide on June 22, 2018. As of September 2018, the game has sold over two million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling games on the platform.

Aces adds several new mechanics to the Mario Tennis series. Using the motion controls of the Joy-Con, the player is able to initiate a “zone shot”, where the player can aim directly where the ball will go while the game enters a paused state. If the opponent counters the zone shot, their racket will take damage. When a racket is hit with a zone shot three times, it will break, forcing the player to forfeit the match if it is their last one.

The trick shot ability enables the player to quickly travel to where the ball will land. If the trick shot succeeds, then the player’s energy gauge will increase dramatically. However, it is easy to misjudge the timing and therefore is a risky move to make. Another ability available to players at the cost of their energy gauge is the special shot. To activate it, the player must have a full energy gauge.
