VGChartz's Stephen LaGioia: "Overall, I found myself really enjoying this unique, atmospheric take on Tetris, even if the gameplay tends to take a slight backseat to the in-your-face presentation at times. The core foundation is still there amidst the aesthetic and audio bombast, and should still prove solid enough for traditionalists (especially with Classic Score Attack). At the same time, those seeking to experience Tetris with some flashier modern-day flair and neat gameplay twists won’t be disappointed."
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.
