THQ has announced that is launching Tetris Evolution For Xbox 360 next month.

Tetris Evolution will bring the brand to the next-generation for the first time with all new gameplay modes, multiple customizations, as well as Xbox Live capabilities according to the publisher

In Tetris Evolution, players will enjoy not only traditional Tetris gameplay, but numerous new modes including “Go Low” and “Eraser” for both single and multiplayer.

The multiplayer mode not only allows for up to four players on a single console, but players can now compete with up to four players via the Xbox Live online entertainment service.

Contributing to the online experience are the new intelligent matchmaking system, which pits players against others within their skill level, as well as the online ladder system, which will enable players to track their overall skill level and accumulate Xbox Live achievement points to increase their Gamerscore.

The game will also feature customizable themes, skins, icons and soundtracks to create a personalised gaming experience.

"The Tetris series has been entertaining people of all ages for 20 years and has delivered unprecedented appeal and longevity in gaming", said Kelly Flock, executive vice president of worldwide publishing, THQ. “With its predecessor, THQ’s Tetris Worlds, having sold more than two million copies to date, we can’t wait to debut Tetris Evolution on the Xbox 360 to show how the game has further evolved.”

The Tetris brand has sold more than 70 million units worldwide across more than 30 game systems since its first release in 1985.
