Japanese developer Arika has announced a Switch port for Tetris the Grand Master 4: Absolute Eye, their Tetris spinoff sequel.

Tetris the Grandmaster 4: Absolute Eye is coming to Switch worldwide on June 4th, via the eShop.

The latest in their competition-focused Tetris spinoff series has been available since April 2025 on Windows PC (via Steam).

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:

First released in arcades in August 1998, the action puzzle game Tetris the Grand Master became beloved by many fans as a version of Tetris designed for dedicated gamers, packed with deep and rewarding gameplay systems.

The series later continued with Tetris The Absolute The Grand Master 2 in 2000 and Tetris The Grand Master 3 Terror-Instinct in 2005. In April 2025, after a 20-year hiatus, the newest entry in the series, Tetris the Grand Master 4: Absolute Eye, was released on Steam.
