Puyo Puyo Tetris dropping onto Nintendo Switch, PS4 on April 25th

We’re super, super excited to finally get our hands on Sega’s Puyo Puyo Tetris in North America this spring, regardless of the platform. But those picking up a Nintendo Switch should be especially excited since you’ll getting an awesome puzzle game right around launch… on April 25th.

Availability is a little confusing, with only the Switch getting a digital release, and also a special retail version with bonus keychains. PS4 owners can pick up a retail copy at the same time, apparently thanks to licensing restrictions of some type.

See a few new screens and a trailer detailing some of the 4-player game modes below.
