Las Vegas, Nevada - June 6, 2025 - Tetris®, the world’s most iconic puzzle game, continues to unite and inspire fans across generations as the globe celebrates World Tetris Day.

"After more than four decades, the magic of Tetris still lies in its elegant simplicity. It is easy to learn, endlessly challenging, and universally loved," said Maya Rogers, CEO of Tetris. "As we look to the future, we’re focused on evolving the brand in unexpected and exciting ways, from bold collaborations to new platforms and formats. At the heart of it all is our passionate global community, whose love for the game inspires us to push the boundaries of what Tetris can be."
In 2025, The Tetris Company is building on last year’s momentum with a bold lineup of announcements, creative collaborations, and immersive experiences that reflect the spirit of Tetris. The brand remains committed to innovation while honoring the timeless gameplay that has made it a global classic.
