When Mario Tennis Aces arrived on the Nintendo Switch in June last year, it was accused of being a "lazy" slapdash release that was light on a number of vital features every good tennis game needed. Since then, Camelot and Nintendo have continued to add more content and playable characters as free updates.
The latest character joining the roster is Dry Bones in May. To unlock this character, all you have to do is participate in the online tournament, otherwise, you'll have to wait until 1st June. Dry Bones is a tricky-type player - so expect to be running all over the court if you're on the receiving end. Take a look at the promotional trailer below:
If you haven't played Mario Tennis Aces in a while, last week it received a brand new update, bumping it up to Version 3.0. This update included character balance tweaks, a new intro movie starring Wario and Waluigi and a new 'Ring Shot' mode. In case you missed the original post, here are the videos:
Will you be taking to the court to try out Dry Bones? Have you downloaded Version 3.0? Tell us below.

This game is really starting to have a lot of characters
In other words, give us Pauline for mario kart dlc
More characters merrier, but Mario Tennis Aces still need some Basic rules setting before playing.
That new intro felt weirdly wrong.
Cool I suppose..
I need to get back into this game. It seems like a ton has been added since I last played.
I’m all about adding dry bones!!! Just wish he wasn’t a “tricky” character. I always think they are cheap to play as online
Where is my Mario Party Content?!
All i want is Double Simple Tournament.
What is the point of adding content post release when the game has already been widely panned, it's beyond dumb for me.
I like this game. It's a great twist on the sport I know and love and the constant addition of free content is something I wish more games did.
Funny how we were pitted against Dry Bones in the prerelease online demo as part of the tutorial, and yet he's just now coming to the base game as a playable character...
Give me Glydon and I might even buy this game when it's on sale.
I'm really hoping for Dry Bowser in June.
