Digital Eclipse and The Tetris Company have revealed the full lineup of games that will be included in Tetris Forever, which is set to be released later this year. You're getting 13 different titles in this release, dating all the way back to the Apple II, as they cover the majority of the versions released in the '80s and '90s. However, it's not a complete list, which we need to point out, as they're missing the long-lost SEGA Genesis version that was only made in prototype but is out there as a downloadable ROM. As well as the N64 title Tetris Worlds, which we recall playing when it first came out and having fun with as one of the first four-player experiences with the series. Hopefully, those become some DLC down the road, but for now, here's the full list as we're waiting on a release date.
