Tetris 99 has been available to play for almost 6 years now. Nevertheless, the game continues to receive a lot of support. When there isn’t any updates, the game is receiving themes that fans can get from Maximus Cups. Most of the new themes involve a first-party game that recently released on the Nintendo Switch.
This is no exception. The 45th Tetris 99 Maximus has been officially announced by Nintendo recently. This time, it will feature a theme based on Donkey Kong Country Returns HD. The Maximus Cup will be taking place in just a week from now, beginning on February 13th. You can see Nintendo of America’s announcement tweet about the matter down below.
