Nintendo has officially released a comprehensive six-minute overview trailer for Mario Tennis Fever, the highly anticipated tennis game arriving on Nintendo Switch 2 this February.
Serving as the latest entry in the beloved Mario Tennis series, Mario Tennis Fever is poised to bring high-energy, imaginative tennis action to Nintendo's next-generation console with new gameplay mechanics, a deep roster, and a slew of innovative modes. Set to launch worldwide on February 12, 2026, both physically and digitally via the Nintendo eShop, Mario Tennis Fever reintroduces Mario and his Mushroom Kingdom friends as they step back onto the court.
Players will master a variety of classic tennis shots, including topspins, slices, and lobs, complemented by advanced footwork and fresh defensive techniques to outmaneuver opponents in fast-paced matches. One of the distinctive gameplay features revealed in the overview trailer is the Fever Gauge.
Players can maintain rallies to fill their Fever Gauge and unleash powerful Fever Shots.
These can be further enhanced by equipping one of the 30 available Fever Rackets, each offering its own special effect.
Options range from the Ice Racket, which freezes sections of the court, to the Mini Mushroom Racket that shrinks opposing players, and the Shadow Racket, which allows players to create duplicates of themselves.
With 38 playable characters and a wide variety of rackets to experiment with, Mario Tennis Fever promises extensive replayability and strategic depth. The game will offer multiple modes to suit all types of players.
In Tournament mode, play-by-play commentary is delivered by the Talking Flower, adding extra excitement and immersion to each match.
Trial Towers challenge players' reflexes and skill by setting specific objectives, while Mix It Up mode introduces wild rules and Wonder Effects that shake up standard play. For fans seeking a story-driven experience, Adventure mode returns.
This time, Mario and his companions are transformed into babies after an unexpected encounter with monsters on a mysterious island.
Players must guide the heroes through inventive tennis challenges to help them regain their skills and ultimately defeat the monsters to restore their true forms. Mario Tennis Fever continues Nintendo's legacy of delivering innovative and engaging sports experiences on its platforms.
With its deep customization, finished polish, and rich cast of characters, this title is shaping up to be one of the standout titles for the Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026.
Be sure to catch the full overview trailer on Nintendo's official channels for an in-depth look at the gameplay and vibrant features awaiting fans next month.
