Tribute Games is developing a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game called TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge that takes inspiration from 1989’s TMNT and 1991’s TMNT: Turtles in Time arcade titles. French publisher Dotemu revealed the news in a press release published today, which confirmed that the game up would be released for both PC and consoles. Similar to its classic arcade predecessors, the modernized beat’em up will feature beautiful 2D pixel art and allow a group of four players to take on the Shredder and his Foot Clan.
“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,” a press release reads. “Today’s announcement trailer perfectly encapsulates the Heroes in a Half-Shell’s rambunctious attitude as they leap and bash their way across Manhattan to a thumping rendition of their signature anthem belted out by Faith No More’s Mike Patton.”
“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.”
DotEmu hasn’t announced a release date for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge yet, but fans can keep up to date on the game by bookmarking its official site and wishlisting the game on Steam.
