You have to beat the game on the easier difficulties to unlock the hardest difficulty level of Legend. You only have to win a single match on Hard and then Expert to unlock Legend. Overall I say the game provides a great challenge on the hardest difficulty, but once you start figuring out all the angles and max out your character you're basically a tennis god and should be winning most matches (especially when you're not fatigued) regardless of difficulty. When fatigue and minor injuries set in, matches will be a bit more difficult, but never unfair. The game would benefit from some further balancing. I have been playing since launch and have sunk 80 hours into the game already maxing out a few characters along the way. You have to play both the men's and women's tours in order to unlock all the venues.

That's odd. Maybe I'll make a character for my wife and let her play.

You know, I thought the same at first, but after making my GF and playing as her character I found the women's tour to actually be way more compelling because it has like 3x the number of real pros.

Thanks. I'm waiting for college football 25 to release in a month but I'll probably pick up topspin 2k25 at some point. Sounds like a fun game with a good career mode.
