“Tonight, I dine on turtle soup!“
Yes, you read that right, and no, you didn’t get teleported back to the 90’s. There is, in fact, a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Beat-’em-up on the way, titled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. And, it’s a sequel to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time; or at least, in spirit. The game is being published by Dotemu.
Shredder’s Revenge is being developed by Tribute Games, whom you might know from Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game. And given those bona fides, you can guess that you’re getting something good.
Shredder’s Revenge is described as a “classically informed side scrolling beat-em-up directly inspired by classic TMNT games.” More importantly, it’s being done in the Konami style, with the 80’s Turtle designs. That said, since arcades are dead in the world of COVID-19, you can expect it to be made for home play, rather than Hoover quarters out of your pocket.
From the description:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge reunites Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello to kick shell in a beautifully realized pixel art world invoking the turtles’ classic 1987 design.
With Bebop and Rocksteady amassing gizmos to support Krang and Shredder’s latest scheme, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge finds the turtles battling through a breathless tour of iconic TMNT locations to thwart their nemeses’ most diabolical plan yet. Armed with shell-shocking new abilities built on a foundation of classic brawling mechanics, the gang are in for an exhilarating, Foot Clan-stomping romp leading them through the sewers and bustling boroughs of New York City all the way to Dimension X.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge will be available on PC and home consoles.
