Tetris Ultimate - who is ready for some more falling blocks?

I have been playing Tetris since the NES and have acquired it in some fashion on almost every console since. It still has incredibly staying power not only with me, but my family and friends as well. That make this upcoming release that much more exciting for me.

The press release:

WHAT:           

Ubisoft® announced that Tetris® Ultimate, the evolution of the world’s most-loved puzzle game, will be available for digital download for the first time on Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system this summer to coincide with the 30th anniversary of Tetris, and will be available this fall on PC.

With exciting modes, fun features and unique visuals, Tetris Ultimate allows 1–4 players to face off in six different game modes: Marathon, Endless, Ultra, Sprint, Battle and Power-Up Battle.
