Starting October 15th in the EU and October 22nd in the US, Lumines Supernova will drop down to $9.99. The Holiday and Classic track packs will be bundled and sold for $4.99 as well.
Eurogamer: Q Entertainment will finally release Lumines Supernova on the European PlayStation Store tomorrow. You'll need GBP 9.99 or EUR 14.99 to buy the puzzle game, which adds Dig Down and Sequencer modes to the much-ported, proven formula. Dig Down has players burrow through a block-filled screen, and the Sequencer lets users piece together backing tracks from a stock selection of loops.
Sony has announced that Lumines Supernova, the latest version of Q Entertainment's visually eclectic puzzle game for the PlayStation 3, will be released over the PlayStation Network next Tuesday, December 23. It'll be priced at $14.99.

All of these downloadable games come with Trophies, and they'll make sure that you'll be having fun in December, even if Santa doesn't get you exactly what you want. Enjoy!
Today, a press release out of Tokyo provided PS3 owners with more details regarding the upcoming Lumines Supernova, the latest iteration of the greatly loved Lumines franchise. Combining music, sharp, colorful backgrounds and addictive puzzler gameplay, Supernova is sure to please long-time Lumines fans eagerly awaiting the game's arrival on the PS3. We already knew that Q Entertainment would be bringing the game to the PSN, along with new modes (including a Sequencer mode for creating your own music) and a whole bunch of new skins, but a surprising bit of news came out of the press release as well. LittleBigPlanet's Sackboy will be making a guest appearance in Supernova, in the form of a Challenge mode skin filled with Sackboys and Sackgirls. The press release also confirmed that Lumines junkies can expect full Trophy support for the downloadable, which is always good news.
The third installment to this addictive puzzler is coming to the PSN with HD graphics very soon.
Gamasutra: Q Entertainment (Every Extend Extra, Rez HD) is working with Sony and LittleBigPlanet developer Media Molecule to release an official version of Lumines within LittleBigPlanet. Since LittleBigPlanet's PlayStation 3 release in the U.S. and Japan in October, players have taken advantage of the game's user-creation tools to produce original games as well as unofficial recreations of popular titles, such as Mega Man, Gradius, Pac-Man, and even Tetris.
Destructoid writes: Sony must be proud of its latest mascot, Sackboy. The cuddly avatar has found its way, either through DLC costumes or user-made levels, into many different franchises. For the first time, Sackboy will be making an appearance in a puzzle title. According to Japanese electronics site Dengeki, Q-Entertainment's Lumines Supernova will be grabbing some LittleBigPlanet content in the form of skins. The information is a bit scant, but we do know that the LBP content will be a portion of a larger downloadable package. In order to get to the Sackboy stuff, players will have to navigate through a segment of the DLC. The price is listed as undecided, but Japanese consumers can expect the content this winter. No word on if the DLC is coming stateside, but we're guessing that Sony won't pass up the opportunity to put more Sackboy in all of our laps.
