A week ago, you may recall that Nintendo announced another Maximus Cup that would taking place in Tetris 99. This one is based on Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, which officially released on the Nintendo Switch around a month ago. The Maximus Cup is scheduled to occur this weekend. In fact, it will be starting in just a couple of days from now.
There hasn’t been a gameplay trailer for the Maximus Cup yet, but Nintendo has decided to change that tonight. A gameplay trailer has been released to promote the upcoming event and show off the theme that players will be able to unlock. You can see the official announcement social media post about the matter down below.
The #Tetris99 45th MAXIMUS CUP event will run from 2/13 at 11:00pm PT to 2/17 at 10:59pm PT!
Once you’ve accumulated a total of 100 event points, a new theme will unlock, featuring art, music, and Tetrimino designs inspired by #DonkeyKong Country Returns HD! @Tetris_Official pic.twitter.com/sqOr8mzmE3
