Tetris Effect: Connected

Tetris Effect: Connected expands the original Tetris Effect with cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes in which players stack falling blocks together or against each other within the same hypnotic audiovisual show that made the first game famous. The basic rules of Tetris remain unchanged, but around them exists a world of colorful visuals, music, and sound effects that sync with rotating and placing pieces, making the game feel more like an audiovisual experience than a purely logical puzzle game. In the cooperative Connected mode, players share a single playing field and face tougher challenges together, while competitive modes pit teams against each other by sending disruptive lines to opponents.

On PSVR2, the game again offers full VR presentation, where the player is surrounded by cosmic scenery, underwater worlds, or desert landscapes unfolding in every direction around the play field, and the headset's higher resolution makes these settings even sharper and more immersive than on the previous generation. Every cleared line and falling piece triggers its own sound and light effect, so the player gradually builds not just towers of blocks but the musical piece accompanying that level, and in multiplayer modes these effects blend between players. The meditative, relaxation-focused modes remain intact and rank among the most relaxing experiences available on the platform in VR.

Tetris Effect: Connected was received as a welcome expansion of an already acclaimed concept that, thanks to its multiplayer modes, gave the game a new reason to return even for those who had already enjoyed the original in single-player format. On PSVR2, it ranks among the titles recommended as an approachable yet deeply immersive introduction to the platform, both for solo players and for those looking for a shared experience with real friends.

Why play it: Thanks to its new multiplayer modes, it offers an approachable yet deeply immersive introduction to PSVR2 - suitable both for solo players and for a group of friends looking for a shared experience.
