Tetris Effect coming to PC on July 23rd (4K, Rift/Vive VR support) - exclusive to Epic Games Store (see staff post)
- Thread starter PaulLFC
- Start date
Lots more effects and particles possible. VR looks great - though on my "typical" resolution WMR set, the screen door effect is really obvious on bright stages like the windmill stage. Still, holy shit is it nice. I bet this game is even more breathtaking on a premium VR headset with that extra resolution.
Exactly, welcome to like every PC release that's not on a first party service.
I only played the first stage and the first song made me tear up for some reason. It's such a beautiful game.
Anyone notice any weird stickiness/unreponsiveness on moving pieces after line clears? Like they get stuck briefly? Trying to nail this down as something hardware related my end rather than something wrong the port since nobody seems to be reporting it anywhere. (though not sure what it could be, I've gotten it with settings both turned down and turned up).
At first I thought it was my just my wired 360 controller being junky but it was happening with my DS4 too. So weird.

I've only played for 30 min, and I didn't notice anything. However, I'm going to look out for this going forward, and I'll let you know if I see anything weird.
I sucked too but I learned a lot just by playing the game. Went with easy mode first and then beat normal afterwards.
Hard is still too much for me though lol
Yes, yes it does. Anyone know what the price was when this launched on PS4?
When I started Tetris and I would fail at level 6 of Marathon, now I can get S rank on Master. Keep at it and you will get better. Slowly your brain will see the patterns and process them faster and faster.
There's a built in delay after a line clears before the next one starts dropping, if that's what you are referring to.
I tried it briefly yesterday, and was positively surprised that the port has HDR support .
(in regular non-VR mode, obviously)
It worked out of the box with my Geforce 1060 and my Samsung TV, and makes the game even more breathtaking.
I did a review update on the PC version. The port is exceptional to an already fantastic game.
Tangentially related, but Sergey is still raking in $14.2k a month from his steamspy patreon. And that just rubs me wrong in all sorts of ways.
Great review.
Is FXAA the highest AA we can use?
Please tell me the .ini files are unlocked....this can liklely run at 8K on anything past a GTX 970.
Dunno if UE4s TAA would help the game but will test when I get a chance.
P.S Somewhere in the middle you started playing badly for some reason....dont do that, it was so frustrating watchin you suddenly get bad.
I'm not sure about the AA or the .ini files but I can check into it.
P.S Thanks for the tip. I'll make sure to play the super fast difficult ending perfectly next time.
lol, honestly
black_stride, what you said was a little uncalled for imo lol
Make no mistake I wasnt being serious.
I wasnt trying to hate or anything, but i guess from text you couldnt really read the tone.
It was an awesome review......Ive been looking forward to Tetris Effect on PC specifically because I wanted the....err best experience possible so seeing a PC specific review is a godsend.
It's all good. No harm done. YouTube comments tearing up anything that isn't perfect as "bad gameplay" have gotten out of hand the past few years and made me quick to defend unfortunately.
If you register it on the OT thread and the game's out, I don't see why you couldn't. You should ask a mod though.
Just from the video you can tell the visual improvements over the PS4 version. This was a great review!
It kills me how shitty they treat Unreal Tournament at Epic now. The game that literally made the company.
You would never know that Unreal was more than just an engine at this point.
That's been happening to me.
Funnily enough after my save got wiped it then immediately had a crash after I found out and was level 1 again.
i just went ahead and requested a refund, depressingly. Until EGS has cloud saves it's not worth it.
After this though i'll probably just wait for the steam version /shrug.
I wonder what the message looks like for PCs that can't run this game. With the minimum requirements being what they are, technically there is a whole range of systems out there that are powerful enough to run Crysis but not powerful enough to run Tetris.
Ps4 ver doesn't have hdr mode? Huh I though it did. Nice addition.
The PS4 version does support HDR. It's under visuals in the options menu I think it's off by default even if your TV supports HDR.
Yes, I knew PS4 version supported HDR. But I didn't expected it in the PC port, since support in Windows is much more sketchy, and many games don't bring that option from consoles.
