Tetris Effect is a complete reinvention of the iconic puzzle game. It takes the classic Tetris gameplay and gives it a surrealist look. It also features a new “Zone” mechanic, which allows you to freeze time, that adds a strategy element not present in prior Tetris games.

Despite being the next generation of Tetris, seasoned veterans may find the core gameplay they love in Tetris Effect. One Tetris pro managed to absolutely dominate Tetris Effect during a recent playthrough.

Tetris Effect takes its name from the psychological phenomenon in which people still see images of the game well after playing. It also shares many aesthetic similarities with Lumines Remastered and Rez Infinite, two other puzzle games from Resonair.

Tetris Effect releases on November 9, 2018 for the PlayStation 4, and it is compatible with the PlayStation VR. Tetris last made an appearance on the system with Puyo Puyo Tetris, which we called an “essential puzzle game.”
