Since its announcement during this week’s Nintendo Direct, Nintendo announced Tetris 99 would be available for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, for free. With its announcement, Nintendo had mentioned that online events will be added to the game at a later date, but it seems more modes will be added rather than just one mode.
According to dataminer Oatmeal Dome, Tetris 99 will be getting several new modes at later date including:
- “Team Battle”: Two giant teams clash. Be on the winning side!”
- “COM Battle”: “Battle against 98 bots. Defeat the machines!” (supports both 99 Battle and Team Battle)
- “Marathon”: score attack -> 200 lines or endless
Oatmeal Dome mentioned that Marathon will support in-game achievements, including rewards for players who in the standard 99 Battle mode. Exciting plans and updates coming if they’re released. We’ll be sure to follow-up once more information becomes available in the future.
