Feel the "dread" as Metroid Dread reaches Tetris 99

Nothing is safe from the dreaded E.M.M.I. robots of Metroid Dread. Not even Tetriminos!

In the most intergalactic crossover of the year, Metroid™ Dread is coming to the Tetris® 99 game for the Nintendo Switch™ system in a 26th MAXIMUS CUP event that all bounty hunters (and bounty hunters in the making) can join.

The Tetris 99 26th MAXIMUS CUP event runs from 12 a.m. PT on Oct. 29 to 11:59 p.m. PT on Nov. 1. To participate, Nintendo Switch Online members* just need to play the Tetris 99 online mode during the event period. Players will earn event points based on their placement in each match. Once players have accumulated a total of 100 event points, a new theme will unlock, featuring background art, music and Tetrimino designs inspired by the Metroid Dread game.

In addition to Tetris 99, Nintendo Switch Online members can also enjoy online play and the Save Data Cloud feature in a large selection of compatible games, along with access to over 100 classic NES and Super NES games, a smartphone app that enhances features of supported games, and the competitive online battle game PAC-MAN™ 99.

The new Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership features all the same great benefits of a Nintendo Switch Online membership, but with the addition of classic Nintendo 64 and SEGA Genesis game libraries.

For more information about all the benefits and services available with a Nintendo Switch Online or Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership, and to learn about a free seven-day trial for Nintendo Switch Online, go to the Nintendo Switch Online section on the Nintendo Switch HOME Menu or visit https://www.nintendo.com/switch/online-service/.
