Ghostbusters. Air Jordans. Scarlett Johansson. Tetris. What do these all have in common? They were all introduced to the world 40 years ago. On June 6, 1984, Alexey Pajitnov released what has become one of the most lasting video games of all time. From humble beginnings, the game now spans the globe. Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov joined us at IGN Live to celebrate 40 incredible years of the puzzle game, along with President of the Tetris Company Henk Rogers and President & CEO of Tetris, Inc. Maya Rogers.
Classic Tetris, Tetris Effect, NES Tetris, and more are just a few of the many iterations of the puzzle game. The Tetris brand is stronger than ever. The Tetris movie, starring Taron Egerton as Alexey Pajitnov, hit Apple TV Plus in 2023 and the Tetris theme song has also taken on a life of its own. Check out the video to learn the real story of Tetris, told here at IGN Live.
