Mario Tennis Aces has been regularly adding new characters since its launch last year. As we found out a short while ago, Fire Piranha Plant is scheduled for June. We also now know that Dry Bowser is next up in the pipeline, and will be the final new character. Dry Bowser is slated for July for those who participate in the online tournament.
More costumes are also rolling out in the months ahead. The Bowser Tennis Outfit is planned for June, followed by the Wario Overall Outfit / Waluigi Overall Outfit in July, and alternate colors for Koopa Troopa and Paratroopa in August. After August, all previous costumes given out as online tournament rewards will be rerun (in rotation) for those who missed them previously.
