Two Lumines<\/em> games are coming to mobile platforms later this year, Mobcast just announced.<\/p> One, a paid app tentatively titled Lumines 2016<\/em>, is expected to launch sometime this summer, while the other, Lumines VS<\/em>, is planned for a winter release with a free-to-play scheme.<\/p> Mobast acquired the rights<\/a> to Lumines<\/em> and Meteos<\/a><\/em> from Q Entertainment last year, and announced a partnership with former Q boss Tatsuya Mizuguchi (Rez<\/em>, Space Channel 5<\/em>, Child of Eden<\/em>) and his new California-based studio Enhance Games to make a new Lumines<\/em> (or two!) for smartphones.<\/p> This isn’t Lumines<\/em>‘ first foray into the mobile space. Q released Lumines: Touch Fusion<\/em> for iPhone in 2009. Unfortunately, it was kind of a mess, and has since been removed from the App Store.<\/p> If you’re looking for a better version of the puzzle game to play, Lumines: Electronic Symphony<\/a><\/em>, is available PlayStation Vita, and there’s always the PSP originals and Lumines: Supernova<\/em> (PS3).<\/p> In addition to the mobile titles, Enhance Games is developing Rez Infinite<\/a><\/em> for PlayStation VR.<\/p>
