\nDigital Eclipse, the developer behind the likes of Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration and Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story, has unveiled another entry in its critically acclaimed series of interactive documentaries, this time focusing on legendary puzzler Tetris. It’s called Tetris Forever, and it’s coming to PC and “multiple” consoles this winter.\n<\/p>\n

\nTetris Forever is officially the third entry in Digital Eclipse’s Gold Master Series – which includes Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story<\/a> and last year’s equally sumptuous The Making of Karateka<\/a> – and it aims to tell the “true story of Tetris” as the puzzler celebrates its 40th birthday.\n<\/p>\n

\nIt’ll feature 15 playable games from the series, “many” of which have never been released outside of Japan before. Versions include an “accurate recreation” of the first Tetris, which appeared on the Electronika 60, as well as the 1998 Famicon edition of Tetris, the multiplayer focused Tetris Battle Gaiden, Super Bombliss, Hatris, and more.\n<\/p>\n
