Serve Controls<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Not every player is going to focus on trying to win from the serve, but knowing how to execute different types of serves will help give you options if one doesn’t seem to be working right. For a normal serve, tap the button and then use the Left Stick to try and aim, but be careful not to aim too far to any particular direction.<\/p>\n
Even for a power serve, any aim near edges is probably going to end in a fault without very high stats and a perfect timing serve input. Use the TopSpin Academy and MyCAREER drills to improve your timing on this, as it’ll take a little practice to get used to moving the Left Stick just enough to shift your aim without missing entirely.<\/p>\n

Shot Controls<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Next up, your bread and butter in any TopSpin 2K25 matchup will be a variety of shots you can deliver. The most important thing in most cases is going to be your timing. If you make too many poorly timed shot attempts, you’re likely to either send a ball out and give away the point or to setup your opponent for an easy shot.<\/p>\n
Similar to serves, you’ll need some practice to get pinpoint precision when aiming. TopSpin Academy is a great option there, but regular shots can also be practiced well in just about any game mode.<\/p>\n
Here are all the TopSpin 2K25 shot controls you’ll need:<\/p>\n

Volley Controls<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
Lastly, we have the risky but potentially high reward world of going for a volley. This is when you hit the ball back before it bounces, and it often requires your player to move up the court and closer to the net.<\/p>\n
Be extremely careful to not go overboard looking for volleys. If you bunch up on the net too much, opponents could get an easy over the head lob shot or a good power strike that flies past you before you ever get a chance to volley it back.<\/p>\n

That wraps up all the TopSpin 2K25 controls players will need, but mastering them is a whole other challenge. As mentioned above, go through at least the basic and advanced tier of tutorials and lessons in TopSpin Academy.<\/p>\n
After that, MyCAREER is the best place for players to head. You’ll get plenty of opportunity to test your skills in matches, and month to month training includes several unique drills that will push your mastery of specific TopSpin 2K25 controls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
