The wait is over as Tetris Forever gets a release date

October 17, 2024 Luke Henderson

Just the other day, Tetris Forever revealed all the versions of Tetris included within, but with that information they didn’t say anything about the games release date, but that has changed.

The latest entry in the Gold Master Series will arrive on November 12, giving players only a few weeks of wait until they can explore the history of Tetris across five interactive timelines that combine playable games, video featurettes, and digital artifacts. Tetris Forever explores the evolution of the genre-inspiring puzzle from a small, single-programmer effort behind the Iron Curtain to an international gaming franchise with enduring popularity.

Digital Eclipse is also unveiling the key art for Tetris Forever, created by multidisciplinary artist and musician Willea Zwey. Her striking visual embodies the essences of both the games and the story featured in Tetris Forever. Zwey's ability to craft otherworldly scenes infused with surreal elements and deep storytelling made her an ideal candidate for creating the title’s key art.

Tetris was one of the first video games I played as a child, blending logic and fun in a way that really stuck with me,” said Zwey. “When I was approached for this project, it felt like a perfect connection, especially with my background in architecture. I wanted to reimagine the game by creating a surreal architectural space that celebrates the endless possibilities of Tetriminos. The design feels like a gallery space, with the Tetriminos as the central displays, and I wanted to incorporate movement to emphasize their dynamic nature. The multi-dimensional perspective pushes beyond traditional boundaries, while the night-like scene, with glowing Tetriminos, brings a fresh, vibrant feel to the game. Adding small figures highlights both the scale and spontaneity of the game’s limitless potential.
