Additional FeaturesEdit

Additionally, the Nintendo Switch version makes use of the HD Rumble as a haptic gameplay feature. The game also features online leaderboards and local 2P mode. 

TriviaEdit

• This is the first Lumines game to be released on a Nintendo console.
• There are a total of 44 avatars as opposed to 48 in the original game. The avatars in Lumines Remastered are picked from the entire game series rather than ported from the original game.
• Unlike in the original game, there is no 600sec Time Attack.
• The game features Skin Edit, Puzzle and Mission modes, all of which were introduced in Lumines II. Even the Manager class and MACHINE INTERFACE skins from Lumines II are used in the latter two modes.
