The platform-specific versions of Tetris Worlds were developed by three different companies. Blue Planet Software developed the PC and PlayStation 2 versions, Radical Entertainment developed the GameCube and Xbox versions, and 3d6 Games developed the Game Boy Advance version. All versions were published by THQ under license from The Tetris Company. Tetris Worlds was THQ's first Tetris game. The company later published Tetris Advance also for the Game Boy Advance, Tetris Elements for the PC and Mac, and Tetris Evolution for the Xbox 360. Every version except for Game Boy Advance features a distinctly whispering female voice (Kimberly Unger, credited as eKim) as the announcer. She returns for Tetris Splash. The game has been translated into French, German, Italian, Spanish and Japanese.
