by Rainier on June 16, 2021 @ 11:49 p.m. PDT

In large-scale, 99-player battles, it’ll take speed, skill, and strategy to knock out the competition and become the last player standing.

You can target opponents by sending them Garbage Blocks, but be careful… Your rivals can target you back! Defeat opponents to acquire K.O. Badges that may give you the advantage on future attacks. Nintendo Switch Online members can also look forward to upcoming online events!

Tetris 99 features online competitive modes exclusive to Nintendo Switch Online members. Owners of the digital version of the game can purchase the optional Big Block DLC, which adds several offline modes, like CPU Battle and Local Arena.

What’s that? Tetriminos have begun falling from the sky? Huzzah! For a brave adventurer such as yourself, this is a great opportunity to test your mettle in battle. Mount your trusty steed and gallop to the frontlines to join Tetris 99 for a new Miitopia themed Maximus Cup!

This week’s Tetris 99 21st Maximus Cup event gives you the chance to earn an in-game theme based on the Miitopia game. With the Tetris 99 game on the Nintendo Switch system, you’ll be able to put your reflexes and dexterity to the test. Whether you’re a renown Warrior, Pop Star or Chef, there’s nothing like unwinding at the end of the day with a hearty challenge in the latest Maximus Cup.

The Tetris 99 21st Maximus Cup event runs from 12 a.m. PT on June 18 to 11:59 p.m. PT on June 21. To participate, Nintendo Switch Online members just need to play the Tetris 99 online mode during the event period. Players will earn event points based on their placement in each match. Once players have accumulated a total of 100 event points, a new theme will unlock, featuring background art, music and Tetrimino designs inspired by Miitopia.

The Dark Lord may be snatching faces in Miitopia, but with enough skill and luck, you can snatch victory from the jaws of defeat in Tetris 99. If you’ve been playing Miitopia, then you’ve probably enjoyed injecting the game with your own cast of Mii characters. Now you can inject Tetris 99 with some mischievous Miitopia charm.

Tetris 99 is available for Nintendo Switch and is free to download
