Tetris Forever Reveals Game List

I love Tetris. I know I’m not the only one, considering the amount of people with Tetris on their phones that I see in the Doctor’s office. Now, Tetris Forever’s devs are revealing a new trailer, along with all the games in this new release.

Alexey Pajitnov created Tetris Forever in 1984 behind the Iron Curtain. The Game is meant to celebrate the series’ history with over 15 games. Here is what the press release says about the new announcement:

“Today, renowned retro gaming studio Digital Eclipse, in partnership with The Tetris Company, is pleased to reveal the newest trailer for the upcoming game Tetris Forever, the latest entry in the studio’s Gold Master Series. The Tetris games are set in an interactive timeline that celebrates the original, genre-inspiring puzzle game and tells the unique story of the game’s evolution from a small, single-programmer effort behind the Iron Curtain to an international gaming franchise with enduring popularity.

Explore four decades of Tetris history with more than 15 games, including several classics making their debut outside Japan for the first time. Relive the origins from 1984 with a faithful recreation of the first Tetris on the Electronika 60 computer, face off in the multiplayer favorite Tetris Battle Gaiden, unleash massive explosions to clear lines in Super Tetris 2 + Bombliss, and enjoy many other classic games.

The single and multiplayer games included in Tetris Forever include versions from the Apple II, Nintendo Entertainment System, Game Boy, and Nintendo’s Japanese-market consoles, the Famicom and Super Famicom.

Some of the included games are:

Tetris Forever also features a brand-new game, Tetris Time Warp, developed by Digital Eclipse. This new take on the classic lets players “warp” through different eras of Tetris, experiencing a dynamic mix of graphics, play styles, and mechanics in real-time.”

Tetris Forever will also include a digital museum with photos, videos, ads, and more. This is a great way to explore the history of one of the most pervasive puzzle games in existence. I’m excited to check out Tetris Forever when it launches before the end of the year. Fans of the franchise will have a lot to enjoy and play.
