No One seems to be talking about this. We all love Rez, Child of Eden and Lumines etc. Looks like it's going to be up the with Space Invaders Extreme.

A very nice version of Tetris which doesn't add anything too new, except for the zone mechanic.
Even has a grandmaster-like mode for all you masochists.

I didn't know Tetsuya Mizuguchi was involved with this. I'll have to check this out now.

I spent some time with this over the weekend. The presentation is top notch and it’s loads of fun. My only gripe is having to rezoom in on the play field after you top out. I don’t know if this works better in VR, but it’s pretty annoying. The default setting is way too small for my old ass eyes.

PS4 only I guess?

Yes.

I hate that too, but you don't have to bother with it if you're using VR.

Might be my game of the year. All of the ambient electronic music and trippy visuals of a Mizuguchi game on top of a pretty solid version of modern Tetris. It ain't perfect but most games these days are such bloated time-wasters, it's nice to be able to sit down, enjoy a game for an hour and not feel like you haven't accomplished anything.

It'll likely show up on PC eventually (as Rez Infinite did) but totally worth $20 on PS4.
