Surprise! Popular Fruity Puzzler Suika Game Is Suddenly Available on PS5

Well, I wasn't expecting this news on a random Monday in July, but it's very much welcome.

Suika Game, as well as its follow-up Suika Game Planet, are both now available for purchase on PS5.

Going for $2.99/£2.49 each, these popular fruit-based puzzle titles have been available elsewhere for years, so it's nice to finally see them pop up on PlayStation.

Here's a video that shows off the basics of gameplay:

Basically, Suika Game has you matching fruits as they fall into the play field. When two matching fruits touch, they combine and become a larger fruit, going from cherry all the way up to watermelon.

Suika Game Planet is essentially the same idea, only you're playing into a circular area rather than a rectangular one.

These are very simple games, but quickly grew popular when they first appeared. Now, you can check them out yourself (if you haven't already) via PS5.

It's good to have the official games ready to roll, because the PS Store definitely has a few copycats among all its awful shovelware.

Sister site Nintendo Life gave the original game a decent 7/10 in their review, calling it a "competent and addictive little puzzler that does a great job of executing a very simple concept."
