Nintendo has released an overview trailer for Mario Tennis Fever, before the game launches on February 12, 2026. The trailer showcases the game’s story mode, fever racket mechanic, and the multiple modes.
The overview trailer for Mario Tennis Fever provides a demonstration of the fever racket feature. You can pick one of 30 rackets for one of 38 characters, each with their own unique features. For instance, you can pick a racket that creates a shadow double of yourself, or allows you to dash across the court. Some of the confirmed characters include Nabbit, Baby Waluigi, Goomba, Dry Bowser.
There are also the mainstays that you’d expect from a new Mario sports game, such as Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Rosalina, Donkey Kong, Wario, Waluigi, and countless more. There are multiple modes, such as tournament, trial towers, adventure mode, and more that vary depending on the court. Additionally, Fever supports ranked matches, GameShare between the Switch 2 and original Switch, and amiibo.
