Games komen en games gaan, maar alleen Tetris blijft bestaan. Deze ware videogame legende blaast inmiddels al 40 kaarsjes uit en voor die gelegenheid werd Tetris Forever aangekondigd. Dit wordt een collectie met allerlei Tetris-games (en een documentaire), waardoor je de rijke geschiedenis van het spel kan ervaren.

In totaal zullen er 14 klassieke games in de collectie zitten én een nieuwe toevoeging: Tetris Time Warp. Gematsu heeft een overzicht van alle games online gezet en een trailer gepost die in vogelvlucht even de verschillende titels toont. Check alles hieronder.

Tetris Forever verschijnt ergens in de loop van 2024.

Explore four decades of Tetris history with 14 classic games, including several 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 collection of single and multiplayer games were carefully ported or recreated from versions published on the Electronika 60, Apple II, NES, Game Boy, and Nintendo‘s Japanese-market consoles the Famicom and Super Famicom.
