Nintendo has been very active with the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack retro libraries, especially in the last year. While it varies which retro library will be updated with more games, Nintendo's schedule with new additions has reached the point where at least one retro game per month is now guaranteed to be added.
Well, tonight is no exception. You see, Nintendo has announced that Tetris will be coming to the Nintendo Switch Online Nintendo Entertainment System library on December 12th. If the news sounds a little familiar, that's because Nintendo has confirmed that the NES version of Tetris will be coming to their Partner Direct subscription service back in August. However, the specific release date is new. You can see Nintendo of America's official social media announcement below.
The classic puzzle is back!
