While we thought it was dead and buried, it could be that the Top Spin series is making a comeback after more than ten years of absence. In any case, this is what reveals XboxEra’s Nick Baker who understands that Hangar 13, the studio behind the latest Mafias, is currently hard at work on Top Spin 5.”I don’t want to get people too excited about this because remember nothing is ever 100% sure. These are only hallway noises that we hear. In any case, it could be that a new Top Spin sees the light of day. I think it would be Top Spin 5did he declare. From what I understand, Hangar 13 would be on it, and we should probably hear about it next year.“
Interesting fact: in 2017, Hangar 13 merged with 2K Czech (the team behind Top Spin 4) which, in 2009, had itself brought in developers from PAM Development, the French studio that created Top Spin , Top Spin 2 and Top Spin 3. You will understand, if Top Spin 5 were to exist, it would certainly not be designed by broken hands, even if some of the members of the time have since packed up. Be that as it may, this rumor serves as a reminder that since 2011, no tennis simulation has managed to flirt with perfection as Top Spin 4 has done. Whether it’s Tennis World Tour, AO International Tennis, or even the upcoming Matchpoint: Tennis Championships, no one can sit down at his table and tell him straight in the eye that he’s done better. In any case, at the editorial office, we cross our fingers very strongly.
