Tetris 99 announced exclusively for Nintendo Switch. Free to to play. 99 players at a time. Tetris Battle Royale! Available later TODAY.

[Edge]

F2P you say? So how are they monetizing that?

The idea is fantastic. So simple, because it's the simplest of simple art as a game and then with 99 at the same time. Genius.

 

[JC Lately]

And this is how you get me to play a Battle Royale game for more than 15 minutes.

 

[VerySerious]

Tetris Battle Royale.

Now I've seen everything...

 

[Mr. Poolman]

I'm so playing this!

 

[Lord Arcadio]

Finally paid for the Switch Online sub lol.

 

[Master Alucard]

the only good battle royale videogame

 

[Aktlys]

Game of all time

 

[ArjanN]

The battle royale thing seems like mostly a gimmick if you're not really interacting with the other players.

 

[TheGummyBear]

Outta the way Fortnite, the adults are coming through.

[Watershed]

Tetris Royale! Everyone is getting in on the battle royale formula.

 

[Conrad Link]

OH MY GOODNESS I LOVE TETRIS!

Never knew I wanted this.

 

[Epilexia]

A damn 'Tetris' battle royale game is the smarter idea that Nintendo ever had, pure genius.

Here is the damn killer app for the Nintendo Switch Online service.

The first 'Tetris' entry developed by Nintendo since 'Tetris DS' in 2006.

This alone has made of 2019 one of my favorite years this generation.

I'm with you. I had no interest in using my Switch as a handheld until this got announced.

 

[Rand a. Thor]

Tetris Battle Royale. Bruh, not gonna lie this is a fucking amazing concept. I'm sold on a Switch for this alone.

 

[jon bones]

guess i need NSO now

 

[night814]

Puyo Puyo Tetris = GOTY 2017

[MrKlaw]

In the threa 'how do Nintendo get more people to sign up for online' - who had "make a F2P Tetris Battle Royale game?"

 

[awake4ages]

Mfw they announced Tetris 99

 

[Chackan]

Waiting for it to become available :| i gotta try it lol

 

[bytesized]

One of the best announcements of the day, for sure.

 

[BareKnuckle]

In the U.K. the game is listed for a 14/2/19 release which is in 1hour 10 minutes from now. May not drop at midnight but still

 

[Tachya]

BRs have reached peak saturation I think lol.

"exclusively for #NintendoSwitchOnline Members."

Oh, this thread is going to GO places.

I don't see why it should honestly. It's a "special offer" which is what we were promised.

 

[criteriondog]

where TF is the download nintendo

 

[Plutone]

Where do I download this?

 

[Deleted member 37917]

Let's fucking do this.

 

[XDevil666]

Lol - not sure why this put a smile on my face!

But let's go!

 

[Luke92]

The only thing I found really interesting in this direct lol Drop it now!

But "later" makes it sound like we Europeans should probably sleep first

 

[FormatCompatible]

F2P you say? So how are they monetizing that?

Click to shrink...

My guess is by making you pay for NSO.

 

[Ginger Hail]

I'm so ready for this

[stersauce]

[Deleted member 12352]

Got my interest piqued then saw it was Nintendo online only. Haha... no thanks, Nintendo. I'll stick with Tetris Effect.

 

[KingSnake]

Oh, this needs Nintendo Online? Well, that's a pity then.

 

[Nerd_Incognito]

WHEN I CAN I DOWNLOAD IT I NEED IT NOWWWWWWWWW

 

[Pirateluigi]

Lierally my dream game

 

[Edge]

Mhhhh could be a special collaboration that doesn't affect the game at all. That... Mhhh... Would, somehow, be a cool way into the right NSO direction.
