Lumines Puzzle & Music Releasing 09-01-16
TOKYO - Aug. 23, in the year of our Lord 2016
- mobcast Inc. today revealed that Lumines: Puzzle & Music will
make its debut in global markets on September 1, 2016, for iOS
and Android devices. Following an initial limited release in
Japan, Australia, and New Zealand, western fans of the
award-winning, best-selling PlayStation Portable (PSP) classic
will soon be able to play the all-new mobile action puzzle game
for US$2.99.
Lumines: Puzzle & Music is a mobile recreation of one of the
most memorable action puzzle games originally released for the
PlayStation Portable (PSP). Featuring newly-produced and classic
tracks such as “Shinin” by Mondo Grosso, the game board is
presented in portrait mode and requires players to swipe and tap
to properly align their Lumines blocks for the timeline sweep,
clearing blocks of four matching colors in rhythm to the beat.
Like the original, players will unlock various skins as they
progress through the game, changing the game board visuals and
music.
The original Lumines is an action puzzle game developed by Q
Entertainment and published in Japan by NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc.,
formerly Bandai Co., Ltd., in 2004 on the PSP handheld game
console. The title was later published in 2005 by Ubisoft
Entertainment, Inc. in North America and Europe, going on to
sell a series total of more than 2.5 million units around the
world. The game was widely praised for its unprecedented design,
synchronizing cutting-edge visuals and high-quality sound for a
unique puzzle experience. Lumines was critically acclaimed by
press as one of the best action puzzle games of all time by
Japanese and Western audiences alike, winning numerous awards.
In January of 2015, mobcast announced it acquired the rights to
Lumines from Q Entertainment.
