Hamster announced today that Arika’s tough Tetris sequel, Tetris The Absolute Grandmaster 2 Plus, will be released on the Switch via the Arcade Archives collection on June 1 (thanks, Gematsu).

Last year, Tetris The Grand Master was added to the Archives, and this sequel promises the same challenging twists on the classic block-aligning format. This sequel adds a Normal Mode for casual players and TGM+ and T.A. Death, which add a rising garbage mechanic and increased gravity, to the series’ Master Mode’s split-second gameplay.
