Built by Cherry Pick Gaming, in partnership with Good Gamers, the new Tetris integration reimagines Color Climb!, a familiar parkour platformer island in Fortnite Creative where players race to climb colorful blocks without falling. The integration replaces the traditional blocks with the iconic Tetriminos that Tetris fans know and love. It also features the famous Tetris theme song (aka Korobeiniki) from the Tetris mobile app, fun Tetris Easter eggs, and a new thumbnail and title featuring Tetris branding. Multiple portals to this special edition, Tetris-themed island will be included in several other Fortnite Creative islands from Dilly, encouraging players of all types to take part in the celebration.

The four tournaments will be hosted by popular streamer and gaming creator The Peach Cobbler (@Thypeachcobbler) on September 17, 25, 28, and Oct 2. Each will feature eight players in total, including six influencers who will promote and livestream across Twitch, TikTok, and YouTube. The other two spots will be reserved for members of the general public, who can enter for a chance to compete by downloading and playing Ultra Mode in the official Tetris mobile app for iOS and Android, then submitting their interest to be selected for the tournament into a form. During the tournaments, players will enter the "speed run" mode within Color Climb! where they will compete to climb as high as they can, as quickly as possible. "Players with the fastest times will advance to the next round, and in the final round, the player with the fastest time will be declared the winner. All eight players will receive a portion of a $10K prize pool for each tournament."

In addition to the four tournaments on Color Climb!, playSTUDIOS will offer a special collection of additional real-world rewards via the Tetris mobile app between September 12 and October 4. Players can utilize the app's in-game currency to enter for a chance to win prizes like a Playstation Gift Card, a Nike shopping spree, and a vacation to the Luxor Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas with two tickets to "Friday Frags Fortnite" at the HyperX eSports Arena.
