VR Sports Sensation Racket Club Gets “A New Spin” in the Game’s First Major Update

Following more than 370,000 matches played on the courts to date, Resolution Games – the leading XR games studio behind Demeo, Spatial Ops, and the recently released Game Room – has today released the first major update to Racket Club. The “A New Spin” update (TRAILER) comes just two months after the game’s initial release and delivers an all-new level of flexibility to players, letting them choose from new rules and modes to hit the courts with customized experiences.

“When we made a new racket sport that’s only played with natural movements, we knew that eventually players that got very good at it would want to experiment. With this release, players can now do just that,” said Mathieu Castelli, Chief Creative Officer at Resolution Games. “Today’s update builds on a strong base and feedback from our wonderful community to offer optional rule adjustments and more. In the same way basketball fans were able to create their own variations over the years – from 3-on-3 to H-O-R-S-E – we want to give Racket Club players the same flexibility to iterate on the foundation we’ve built for a brand new racketsport.”

The A New Spin update includes:

• Unranked Play - Not every competition needs to move you up the ladder; jump into casual games with other players any time
• New Point System - Choose from the existing Ultra Rally points system or single point rallies in any match
• Wall Serve Rules - Players can choose if they want to allow touching the back and side walls on serves
• New Singles Drills - Mastered the existing training mode? Players can now practice and improve their accuracy and techniques with fresh drills in the singles court
• Player Stats - Track your progress, see how you’ve performed and more in a complete redesign of the Player Profile menu
• Fresh Threads - Play your best when you look your best with all new cosmetics now available to unlock

Racket Club has received acclaim from critics and players alike following its December 2023 launch, being hailed as “a brilliant sports game” (USA Today) that “gets you moving like nothing else” (NPR). Racket Club takes inspiration from sports played the world over, including tennis, pickleball, squash, and padel, and creates an all-new experience designed from the ground up for play in VR.

Racket Club is available for $24.99 on the Meta Quest Store, Pico, and Steam. Today’s “A New Spin” update is free for all current and future owners of Racket Club. For more information, join the Racket Club community on Discord and X/Twitter.
