Tetris Blitz is EA’s first-ever freemium Tetris game, and available for both Apple and Android  smartphones and tablets, .

Tetris Blitz will also feature Facebook Connect integration, which will let players compete with friends in a weekly competition, and share high scores.

Tetris Blitz will be available later this spring.
