Ubisoft has announced that Tetris Ultimate is heading to Nintendo 3DS on November 11. The latest iteration of the game that made its name on Game Boy many years ago, which is set to feature 1-4 player gameplay across seven different modes (see below), will also be released on Xbox One, PS4, PC and PS Vita further down the line. Here's the modes that'll be included when the game launches next month:

Marathon - Complete level 15 and rack up as many points as you can.
Endless - Keep clearing lines until your stamina runs out!
Ultra - Race to score as many points possible before time runs out in this three-minute challenge.
Sprint - Clear 40 lines as quickly as you can.
Battle - Go head-to-head to knock out 1-4 challengers.
Battle Ultimate - Be the last person playing after using crazy power-ups! Go on the offensive with Carousel and make your opponent's Well shift to the left after each move, or trigger Let it Rain and dump garbage down on top of them. Buzz Saw helps you out by clearing away a number of your lines, especially useful when you're in a spot of trouble.
Challenge - With four mode variants, be prepared for a variety of challenges that will put any player's determination to the test:
Master - The Tetriminos drop instantly and appear at the bottom.
Rotation Lock - The orientation of the Tetriminos are random and you cannot rotate them.
Escalation - As the game levels up, you'll have to clear more lines
Invisible - The Tetriminos become invisible as they drop to the bottom.
