Revision as of 16:13, 18 December 2013
Puyo Puyo Tetris, stylized on the logo as Puyopuyo Tetris is the newly-announced game in the Puyo series, combining Puyo Puyo gameplay with Tetris (and Rider's head boobs). It will be released on February 6, 2014.
Confirmed characters
- Arle Nadja and Carbuncle
- Rulue
- Suketoudara
- Amitie
- Raffine
- Ringo Andou
- Maguro Sasaki
- Risukuma(? Appears in the Shop tab)
- T
- S (Formerly known as Broccoli-tan)
- I (Formerly known as Risukuma 2.0)
- O the Tetrimuncle
- New Twin Girls (J and Z?)
Initially, T, S, and I were revealed as tantalizing silhouettes, and until November 24th, 2013 they hadn't given us a glimpse at them. To celebrate, SEGA is also releasing an "Arle Ver. 4" card for Puyo Puyo Quest! (...not that you care)
On December 12th, 2013, SEGA announced that Raffine, Rulue, and Suketoudara would return as Legacy Characters. Not very surprising, to say the least.
On December 18th, 2013, Maguro appeared in gameplay during the brief segment for Puyo Puyo Tetris during the Japanese Nintendo Direct broadcast. Additionally, two new twin girl characters were revealed in the same gameplay footage, battling Maguro. Based on their color scheme, it is safe to say they are J and Z... now where's that damn fourth L character?
...in before no Lagnus or Seriri. ;-;
Play modes
- TSU rules
- Tetris rules
- Versus: One player plays Puyo Puyo (by TSU rules), and the other combats them playing Tetris.
- Swap: Every 24 seconds, the players swap between a Puyo Puyo and a Tetris field, even if they're still in the middle of dropping a piece. If a chain starts when the board flips, the damage carries over into the other field when the chain ends, and the player can create "Mix Chains" if they clear in their Puyo and Tetris boards at the same time.
- Big Bang: Similar to Versus, except the Puyo player is in Fever mode and the Tetris player has "Lucky Attack". Nuisance is sucked into a Black Hole in the center of the screen, which explodes after some time.
- Party: The players compete for score and can use items in battle.
- PuyoTetMix: The Puyo and Tetris gameplay is literally mixed, and both Puyo and Tetris pieces are at your disposal. Tetris pieces appear as part of character dropsets, and all Tetris pieces sink to the bottom. (Underwater mode, anyone?) Additionally, each character's dropset contains a piece that constantly flips between a Puyo formation and a Tetris piece, and also two new Tetris blocks that are only 1x1 and 1x2.
Other confirmed features
- A story mode involving the Spaceship Teto and its crew, possibly called Adventure Mode, now with 10 stages per character instead of 8.
- An awesome remix of Theme of Puyo Puyo, as well as a remix of the classic Korobeiniki music that made Tetris famous!
- The return of Shopoi, possibly meaning that extra characters, costumes, and alternate voices can once again be purchased. (or at least confirming Risukuma can be bought)
- A "Puzzle League" tab containing the records of the endless game modes. The endless game modes include Endless Puyo Puyo, Endless Mini Puyo, and Endless Fever for Puyo Puyo, and Marathon, 40 Lines, and Ultra for Tetris.
Tokyo Game Show Keynote
During the Tokyo Game Show in September, the producer of Puyo Puyo burned himself on death curry and demonstrated how Witch and Rulue's voice actresses were not very good at the game publicly... yeah, that's about it. They also showed that SEGA was lazy and had recycled voice clips, and encouraged everyone to get Lagnus and Black Popoi cards on Puyo Quest. Also some arcade version of 20th or some crap like that.
While it wasn't part of SEGA's stream, kumachom and kamestry were invited to play VS rule at TGS. It was shown that anyone who is garbage at Tetris will not get very far against someone who is god at Puyo, kumachom himself included. (Poor kumachom)
Trivia
- All of the new characters introduced in the game so far are based on the tetrominoes. T is based on the T block, S is based on the Z/S block, I is based on the I block, and O is based on the O block. Yet to be seen is a character representing the L/J block.
- This is the first time that SEGA has introduced a trio of new characters without following the ARS formula for naming them, besides S herself.
