Virtua Tennis 4 will support Kinect, PlayStation Move and Wii MotionPlus, SEGA has announced. The next entry in the long-running tennis franchise had previously only been confirmed for release on PlayStation 3, but will now be the first tennis game to make use of Microsoft’s Kinect for Xbox 360.

The game boasts a player roster including world No.1 Rafael Nadal, 16-time major champion Roger Federer and UK No.1 Andy Murray.

“Virtua Tennis 4 is a huge push forward for the much loved SEGA series,” commented Gary Knight, Senior Vice President of Marketing at SEGA of Europe and SEGA of America. “New technology has allowed for the development of innovative styles of gameplay, meaning Virtua Tennis can reach a level of realism not seen before in the tennis genre.”

On PS3 Virtua Tennis 4 will support 3D TVs. No details on how Kinect will be used in the Xbox 360 version have been revealed.
