Thankfully, these unlock conditions can be met on any difficulty with any settings. Therefore, play on Very Easy difficulty and set matches to be as short as possible, if you can. For example, for the “Win 10 Exhibition” unlock condition, play any mode that you know you can win in quickly, and set the target score as low as possible.
Overall, these match formats are pretty quick and easy to unlock. Furthermore, you'll likely unlock most of them by just playing the game regularly. However, if you want them right off the bat, this list should help.
That includes all Exhibition Match Format types in TopSpin 2K25. We hope this guide helps you understand how each format works, along with how to unlock it. Thankfully, Classic Tennis is available right off the bet. Furthermore, each match format is customizable to your preferences, whether you like short or longer matches.
However, MyCAREER mode offers even more match format variations based off these five. For example, Super Tie-Break only requires one player to reach a target score of 10. However, you also need to win by 2. So if you plan on playing MyCAREER, expect to play some of these modes as you complete challenges and raise your status. We recommend playing each format once to acquaint yourself with the ruleset.
