Sega of America and Deep Silver have announced the release date of Puyo Puyo Tetris in the Americas and Europe. The game will be available in the Americas on April 25, and in Europe on April 28, for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.
As we learned earlier, the PlayStation 4 version will be available only in a physical format (due to licensing issues) for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99. The Nintendo Switch version on the other hand will be available digitally for $29.99 and physically for $39.99 in the Americas. In Europe however, it appears both the digital and physical Nintendo Switch version will cost €39.99 / £34.99. On the Nintendo Switch (and in the Americas only), the game will also receive a special launch edition which includes two Puyo Puyo- and Tetris-themed keychains (while supplies last).
Sega have also released a new trailer showing off the different game modes in Puyo Puyo Tetris. You can watch it below, as well as find a written overview of the multiplayer modes, courtesy of Sega of America.
- Versus – Players compete head-to-head in either Puyo Puyo or Tetris to fight in the puzzle fight of their life.
- Swap – Players’ abilities are put to the ultimate test when they compete on both Puyo Puyo and Tetris boards, which switch back and forth at set intervals.
- Fusion – A true hybrid game where players compete with Puyos and Tetriminos together on the same board, requiring deft, on-the-fly thinking to become victorious.
- Big Bang – It’s a race to the finish as players compete against each other to clear unique challenge boards as quickly as possible to win.
- Party – Players compete on Puyo or Tetris boards, but the puzzles feature special items that when activated either help players or harm their opponents.
