Tetris 99 will soon play host to its eighth Maximus Cup and this time around it's the turn of Luigi's Mansion 3 to join in with the fun.
Just like the Fire Emblem and Splatoon-themed events before it, this new event will give players the chance to earn an exclusive theme for their game, all while celebrating the upcoming release of Luigi's spooky outing on Switch. You can see the new theme in action in the video below or get a closer look at it in the image at the top of the article. We're in love already.
The event kicks off at 12am PT on 25th October and will run until 11:59pm PT on the 28th; players must score 100 points during the event to unlock the theme.
Will you be jumping in for a game or two? Fancy getting your hands on that theme? Tell us below.

That's a really nice theme. I've missed every event so far but I won't be missing this one. So far I've unlocked the Zelda, Donkey Kong and Mario theme.
I have got all maximus cups and only 3 themes left to go. On it everyday to collect tickets. 20hours playtime already great game 👍
Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh this looks wicked
Looks great. Will try and acquire
Got all the themes. I might be overdoing it with the achievements. I think I have 50 tickets and nothing to spend them on. Only got Tetris Maximus once...
@TryToBeHopeful I'll trade you 5 Maximus for 15 tickets.
If only that were possible haha
I was playing Tetris 99 daily for a while to collect tickets but I've been slacking on it lately. Will definitely jump on for this, pretty nice theme. Should probably try to get to 100 wins while I'm at it as I think I'm at 96 last time I checked.
Nice looking theme. I like this one more than the spooky one. Wish they’d do that Gameboy theme again though. Or maybe an NES version theme.
Doesn't look as nice as the Kirby theme, which still is the best looking and sounding theme in my opinion, but I'll be keen to unlock that theme all the same.
I have all of the event themes, so I will be (trying to) get this one too
Still need to win two more games in Invictus. Got 8 now, but keep finishing second.
They should make these Maximus events more challenging though. Playing one game to win the theme is not really satisfying.
The non game-related themes are not that exciting, really.
Awesome! I really like the themes, but I wish there was a random option so that each play would select a different unlocked one to display.
Hmm, I see a lot of people are using this comments section as an excuse to show off their Tetris achievements...
So I will now do the same! :
Logged back into this after some time away and am now the proud owner of the icon for winning 3 Tetris Maximus in a row! Hands were shaking near the end of that third one I can tell you.
You don't have to ask me twice! I love Tetris 99! I'll gladly play this event!
I hope we get one for Pokemon and Animal Crossing too!
Well another reason for a few rounds of Tetris 99 is never a bad thing.
Where's the Ring Fit Adventure theme?
Great theme,will definitely be playing to get this one too..in fact sadly I think the only time I play this game is when there is a new theme to grab..
I dig the theme. Unlocked the Zelda, SMB and DK ones, hoping to see more options in the future
@Ooccoo_Jr Nice, I also got that one.
The regular Tetris 99 mode became really easy though. All the skilled players moved to Invictus.
@HumanDog Challenge yourself to not win then...it takes a good few games for the average player to win the themes.
I currently have all themes unlocked. And this one looks really cool. So yeah, ofcourse I'm going to get it
Great! Looking forward to this, I WISH we could put our earned themes on shuffle though!
How many themes is this?
Nice, I love it.
Hopefully this isn't a forced usage theme. I tended to stop playing while these events were going on. It's distracting to me to have a theme and music playing from a game I'm not interested in.
Looks good, hopefully it sounds as good as it looks
