TouchArcade: Remember Lumines? Created by Q Entertainment, it was one of the big PSP launch titles back when that system launched, like a decade ago, which is absurd to think of. Well, Japanese publisher Mobcast and Lumines creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi's new studio Enhance Games have acquired the rights to Lumines and are at work on a new game in the rhythmic puzzle game series for iOS and Android. The game will feature modified gameplay to fit on touchscreens, but expect a similar game feel and some of the same music that made the series what it is. A number of social features will be added, as well. Here's a screen of the most recent Lumines game, the 2012 Lumines Electronic Symphony for the PS Vita, for reference.
Wccftech had the great pleasure of speaking with Tetsuya Mizuguchi at the recent Reboot event, discussing synesthesia, Tetris Effect, Rez, Lumines and more.

I'm probably the only one who genuinely liked Child of Eden (of course Rez is better though). I hope we see a full VR rhythm game from him next,
During their Spring Nindies Showcase, Nintendo announced that the 2005 rhythm puzzle game, Lumines, is heading to the Nintendo Switch sometime this spring as Lumines Remastered.
