EA has recently revealed the cover art for the upcoming Wii Motion Plus touting Grand Slam Tennis.

If you follow tennis, or have some knowledge in the field, you’ll recognize John McEnroe, Roger Federer and Serena Williams, three of the most prominent names in tennis.

Serena Williams herself expresses her enthusiasm for being picked:

“It’s very exciting to be on the cover of EA SPORTS Grand Slam Tennis. This game not only shows EA’s enthusiasm for tennis but for also women’s tennis. I know from experience how tough and gratifying it is to win all four Grand Slams so I hope people will enjoy the Grand Slam experience that is offered in this game.”

Grand Slam Tennis is currently under development by EA Canada and is slated to hit shelves for the Wii on June 18th.

It was recently confirmed that Sega’s upcoming Virtua Tenis will make use of Nintendo’s semi-new MotionPlus hardware.

But what does this really mean? Well it means a much more realistic tennis game is in the works and will be hitting your Wii sometime in the future. Too bad release date and even the developer of the new Wii Virtua Tennis is under wraps.
