Birdo is making her glamorous debut in Mario Tennis Aces

Birdo is the next character to join the ever-expanding Mario Tennis Aces cast. You’ll even be able to unlock her a bit early if you’re up for doing a little extra work.

You can unlock Birdo right now by simply playing in an Online Tournament during the month of October. Of course, that does mean you’ll need to have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. If you’re not up to the challenge, you’ll have to wait until November 1, when Birdo will become available to all players.

Birdo is an All-Around character, making her a reliable choice who can stand up to a wide array of challenges. In the trailer above, she pulls off tricky shots while leaving hearts and sugary pink sparkles in her wake.

Mario Tennis Aces launched on Nintendo Switch this past summer. The game serves up excellent multiplayer challenges, all the more enhanced by the game’s recent online multiplayer co-op update. However, we found the game does lag behind in the single-player campaign.
