Tetris Forever is bringing something new and exciting to the table with an all-original game called Tetris Time Warp. In this fresh addition for 1-4 players, you’ll encounter special Tetrominos (the famous block shapes) that send you back in time to different points in Tetris history. Once you’re there, you’ll need to complete a specific challenge tied to that era. In multiplayer, you can even use these time warps to slow down your opponents by trapping them in a past timeframe until they solve the puzzle. It’s a clever twist that adds a new layer of strategy to the classic gameplay. Mark your calendars, as the collection is set to drop on November 12.
Tetris Forever is a celebration of over 40 years of Tetris, featuring more than 15 games, including some that have never been released outside Japan. You’ll be able to explore the very beginnings of Tetris with a recreation of the original 1984 version made on the Electronika 60 computer. Multiplayer fans can dive into Tetris Battle Gaiden, while those looking for explosive action can try Super Tetris 2 + Bombliss, where clearing lines sets off huge blasts.
The collection includes both single-player and multiplayer games from various platforms, including Apple II, NES, Game Boy, and even Japan-exclusive consoles like the Famicom and Super Famicom. One of the biggest highlights is the brand-new Tetris Time Warp, which takes you on a journey through different Tetris eras in real-time. The game mixes up old-school and modern graphics, play styles, and mechanics, giving both nostalgic players and newcomers something fresh to enjoy.
