Lumines Supernova for US PSN this week

With free festive bundle of skins.

Q Entertainment will offer Lumines Supernova plus a special Holiday Pack on the US PlayStation Store tomorrow.

We're checking the European whereabouts and pricing, but the Store's due for an update on Christmas Eve (Wednesday).

Lumines Supernova builds on the musical puzzle formula with Dig Down and Sequencer modes. The former has players digging through a block-filled area, while the latter allows users to mix backing music from stock set of loops. There's Trophies, too.

All the other bits, such as Skin editing, Time Attacks, Puzzles, Missions and local battles are in. But there's still no online head-to-head.

The free Holiday Pack adds 20 festive Skins but won't stay on the Store indefinitely, so best get in there quick. There's 40 Skins in the full game, including a LittleBigPlanet-themed stage.

We'll let you know more when we do.
