WTMG's Leo Faria: "In short, Tetris Effect: Connected brings some excellent new features to the table, such as some great multiplayer modes, as well as more platforms in which to play it. However, this comes at the cost of not being able to play it in VR for very obvious, very Xbox-ish reasons. It loses a bit of its charm as a result. That being said, this is one of the best Tetris multiplayer experiences I’ve played in years. It’s not only catered towards those with a vague notion of how this game works, but also those beautiful lunatics like myself, those who follow the Classic Tetris World Championship to a borderline religious degree. I would love to see Tetris Effect: Connected become an esport staple in the near future."
Some of the best PS5 games are exclusives like God of War Ragnarok and Astro Bot, but there are some indie highlights as well.
Tetris Effect: Connected is getting a physical PS5 and PSVR 2 version soon from Limited Run Games, in Standard and Collectors editions.
The PlayStation Brahs:
"Tetris. The name that everyone knows and may be one of the games that more people have played has been around for decades that had spanned books, video documentaries, and films.
Now Tetris Effect: Connected is on the PS VR2. How does it 'stack' up to the PS VR1 version?"
"spanned books, video documentaries, and films" - don't forget science (The Tetris Effect was a study that described seeing things in your mind's eye long after you've finished a repeated activity, like when you play too much Tetris and all you can see when you close your eyes is the falling blocks!) and music (there was a cool club adaptation of the theme tune a few decades back!).
Great game - the best Tetris by miles in my opinion, and this is comfortably the best version.
I have yet to try the online portion of the game on Xbox but I can't recommend enough the Vr version on Psvr or Oculus
