Tetris Forever launches next month

The content-packed Tetris Forever finally ahas a release date on the Nintendo Switch and other platforms and you can get your hands on the game on Tuesday, 12th November. Tetris Forever includes 14 classic retro Tetris games in one comprehensive package along with a virtual museum with archival materials, a 90 minutes all-new documentary and the new Tetris Time Warp. Here’s the details:

“Tetris was one of the first video games I played as a child, blending logic and fun in a way that really stuck with me. When I was approached for this project, it felt like a perfect connection, especially with my background in architecture. I wanted to reimagine the game by creating a surreal architectural space that celebrates the endless possibilities of Tetriminos. The design feels like a gallery space, with the Tetriminos as the central displays, and I wanted to incorporate movement to emphasize their dynamic nature. The multi-dimensional perspective pushes beyond traditional boundaries, while the night-like scene, with glowing Tetriminos, brings a fresh, vibrant feel to the game. Adding small figures highlights both the scale and spontaneity of the game’s limitless potential.”
