'Tetris 99' Maximus Cup Unlocks WarioWare: Get It Together! Theme

by Rainier on Sept. 14, 2021 @ 12:00 a.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.

Watch out, chumps. Wario’s back!

To celebrate, a new Tetris 99 Maximus Cup will give you the chance to earn an in-game theme based on the one and only Wario and his WarioWare: Get It Together! game. With the Tetris 99 game on the Nintendo Switch system, you can now get a taste of mayhem from the minds at WarioWare, Inc. Especially Wario’s brilliant mind, because no one compares to him. BWA HAHAHAHA!

The Tetris 99 24th Maximus Cup event runs from 12 a.m. PT on Sept. 17 to 11:59 p.m. PT on Sept. 20. Show those Tetriminos who’s boss and prove you’re worthy of the attention of the head of WarioWare, Inc.! Use your wit and smarts to triumph over your opponents, and you can snag an event theme to proudly show off to anyone. Even Wario might be impressed … but probably only a little.

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 WarioWare: Get It Together!

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