Sega today announced it’s working on Sega Superstars Tennis for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, PS2 and Nintendo DS. The game, set to ship in “early 2008,” will star some of the most recognized characters in the Sega universe.
Sega Superstars Tennis will include more than 15 playable Sega characters, including like Sonic The Hedgehog, AiAi from Super Monkey Ball, Ulala from Space Channel 5 and Amigo from Samba De Amigo. Each of these characters will have his or her own unique attributes and superstar tennis skills.
The game is set to focus on fun, with arcade-style matches played out on courts based on environments from Sega games. That means you’ll be hitting the court in the lush tropics of Sonic’s Green Hill Zone or the street fair fiesta of Amigo’s Carnival Park, in addition to other locales.
In addition, other Sega characters will make cameo appearances, although Sega didn’t say which characters or whether they would be playable or just “appear.”
