Virtua Tennis 3 will run at 1080p on PlayStation 3, according to reports from Japan.

1UP explains that during a SEGA press event in Tokyo this weekend, the game was shown off on high-resolution displays, while nearby placards declared it was running in 1080p.

Up to now, very few developers have managed to hit the PlayStation 3's highest single-monitor resolution, although some are hopeful of being able to do so.

Speaking to GamePro recently, a Sony spokesperson said that Insomniac is another aiming for the high resolution with Resistance: Fall of Man.

"Right now the game is at 720p and we are aiming to have it reach 1080p by the time the game is wrapped," the spokesperson said.

PlayStation 3 is due out in the US and Japan this November, with a European release set for March 2007.

Virtua Tennis 3 is due out on PS3 and Xbox 360, with PC and PSP versions also in development.
