Summer of last year, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem hit theaters and blew away both critics and fans, easily becoming one of the best TMNT projects released in decades. While a follow-up film is in the works, we’re also getting a tie-in game for Switch, and it’s coming out later this year.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed is coming from Paramount, Nickelodeon and Outright Games, with development behind handled by A Heartful of Games. While we don’t know the full details on this title yet, we do have some bullet points to share.
Quote:

The 3D brawler/platformer picks up after the events of Mutant Mayhem; the Turtles have been accepted by society following their heroics against Superfly and his band of mutants. Unfortunately, their dream of attending high school as average, everyday students is suddenly interrupted by a new wave of mutants invading New York City. Featuring an all-original storyline, Mutants Unleashed aims to have the same brand of humor as the 2023 film.

Players take control of the four hero turtles, each with a unique playstyle, as they fight their way through the sewers and streets of New York. Outright Games touts how immersive both the world above and below ground is, as well as the cast of familiar faces for the brothers to meet and fight. As co-op is a massive piece of the history of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video games, players can enjoy two-player local co-op in Mutants Unleashed.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed is set to arrive near the end of this year for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC.
Takeaways:
  • 3D brawler/platformer
  • the game picks up after the events of Mutant Mayhem
  • a new wave of mutants invades New York City
  • all-original storyline
  • looks to retain the same brand of humor as the 2023 film
  • take control of the four turtles, each with a unique playstyle
  • fight your way through the sewers and streets of New York
  • features a cast of familiar faces
  • two-player local co-op

Honestly, this looks higher quality than I would have imagined. I probably will be getting this! Let's discuss!

Chaotix12345 03-05-2024 02:01 PM

Yeah, it certainly looks more interesting than I was expecting, given the publisher's track record. Also surprised that they're not rushing it out and it's coming late in the year. Might be worth keeping an eye on.

Drose18 03-05-2024 04:17 PM

Looks cool. Still not expecting much but hopefully It is a fun game at the least.

Glad this isn’t a mobile game

The fourth image has way too much fog going on. I hope they tone that down because the artwork for the game looks quite nice.

The Deadman 03-05-2024 05:07 PM

So we're getting this AND the arcade port? Good lord we're being spoiled as Turtles gamers.

TMNT2012 03-06-2024 06:38 AM

My god guys. We wait months for an update on this, then get 2 games announced within days of each other? A 2012 based arcade beat em up & Mutant Mayhem sequel? We are being spoilt and I love it. Looks surprisingly good - I was concerned and still am sceptical, as their current catalogue isn't anything to shout about, but if it's fun at least, then that's more than I was expecting.

I will say, I figured it would be a quick, cheap cash-in for the movie arriving on home video, but if its out later this year, then I'm hoping to be proven wrong.

RaphaelinSTL 03-06-2024 07:52 AM

Caught more photos that have been released online and they look pretty nice! This definitely has a better look to it overall than I was expecting, and hopefully, it turns out to be a good one.

I remember being cautious when I saw that it was published by Outright Games, but apparently, the developer team behind it had some pretty good reviews on a hack-and-slash/3D brawler game they made called Heart&Slash.

Guess we'll see how this goes! I would still love more games based on the classic series, but I guess 2022 was that year to be spoiled with Shredder's Revenge and Cowabunga Collection. :tlol:

TMNT has a pretty solid history in licensed gaming, so I'm sure this will be solid.

Zulithe 03-06-2024 12:18 PM

Your sarcasm is showing! It's only a 39.99 game so we know how those tend to go. At least I think the graphics look pretty and match the MM style very well. How well it will be as an actual game, guess we'll find out.

Better than most, but fairly checkered, I'd say. We got one original game, about 30 rehashes of an arcade game after that then a handful of half-finished or barely-there games that nobody played (the 2007 game, the 4Kids games, Mutants in Manhattan, Out of the Shadows, etc.). And the latest additions in the past few years are just one game that re-packages the 30 rehashes of the arcade game together in one box and the other one is a brand new arcade game rehash.

CyberCubed 03-07-2024 04:09 PM

The track record for 3D TMNT games has always been poor though. Anything that isn't a 2D game has never done well.

RaphaelinSTL 03-07-2024 06:56 PM

^ Another reason why 2022 was such a great year for Turtle video games. Both of the most successful releases in years dropped within months of each other.

I'll definitely give this a shot. Might use some Amazon credits to get it a cheaper price when it eventually goes on sale. We thinking fall or holiday 2024?

That perception might be more about you than me, man. I wasn't being sarcastic. TMNT does have a good history in gaming. This game will probably be fun. It doesn't mean that I suddenly like "Mayhem".

Did you ever play TMNT '07 on the PS2? I loved it - mindless fun. And the PS4 game was terrific as well - sort of in the same vein as the PS4 Transformers game.

Zulithe 03-07-2024 08:13 PM

It's a reflection of my perception of you.

I'm glad you are on the positive about this game though. Make sure to buy a copy and support it please :P

LeotheLateBloomer 03-07-2024 09:38 PM

Keep your expectations in check, this is a movie licensed game after all and we all know how those are. Definitely wait for reviews before buying this.

Not until we get that Last Ronin game.

Drose18 03-08-2024 05:31 PM

If this is anything like Battle for Bikini Bottom, and judging from the description and screenshots It just might, I will be 100%ing it.

Just because its 40 bucks at the start doesn't mean the game is bad.

I doubt it's anything like that game. We need to see gameplay footage.

When do we think we'll even see gameplay? Summer time?

TMNT2012 05-29-2024 04:06 AM

Took the plunge and went for the Ultimate Collector's Edition from GAME, here in England.

Hey, I was kind of right, haha.

It looks fun! I wonder if you'll be able to pick the Turtle you want throughout the game or if it's more based on the story of who you play as. The animations look a bit stilted at times, but because of the aesthetic choices with how the movie had a sketch drawing look, it works.

I may be tempted to pick this up when it drops since there's a physical release, or I might just even ask for it at Christmas when this inevitably goes on sale cheaper, haha.

Either way, I'm a fan! Still can't get as behind full bandanna Raphael, but alas. Leonardo was my favorite in that movie, so I'll more than likely be playing as him as much as I can!

shredder orokusaki 07-12-2024 10:07 AM

Iwll brutally kill the turtles again!

RaphaelinSTL 07-31-2024 10:36 AM

Had a $20 gift card from Best Buy so ended up just using that to pre-order the game and get it at a discount.

sluggedup226 08-24-2024 05:52 AM

gameplay from fanexpo Canada. Starts at 2:14:19

RaphaelinSTL 08-25-2024 11:06 AM

Thanks for posting! Kind of hard to get a bit of a read, but I'm getting the first 2003 TMNT game vibes ... and that's good cause I loved that game!

Mad Dog McMutt 08-25-2024 03:45 PM

I love that game until I reach the final boss. In my opinion Shredder is way too difficult compared to the rest of the game. When you lose you also have to replay that whole set of final levels all over again. I haven't even yet seen the secret final boss when you beat the game with all of the turtles.

shredder orokusaki 09-10-2024 10:45 AM

The series is a failire because i and my foot ninjas are not yet(in half episodes turltes fight Bishop and in the other half they fight other mutant animals). The game will faill too if i and my foot ninjas are not on it!

The Deadman 09-10-2024 03:27 PM

The Shredder wasnt in the movie which this game is essentially based off of, so he wont be in the game lol.

Zulithe 09-13-2024 11:38 AM

DANG how did this game come out looking so good. Might actually be a solid game and not just a cash grab from the movie. Check out the footage:

It does look pretty good. I am still waiting for Splintered Fate to get a physical release. I look forward to playing both games even though I'm not the biggest fan of the most recent version of the turtles.

Zulithe 09-14-2024 12:21 AM

Oh, here is the actual gameplay trailer if you want to watch without any commentary.


RaphaelinSTL 10-13-2024 08:48 AM

Game comes out this week!

And looks like XBOX accidentally leaked that there will be 1987 skin packs available for download for the game.

https://www.xbox.com/en-AU/games/sto...k/9N4S09WPD9C6

Chaotix12345 10-13-2024 12:03 PM

IGN actually revealed those skins a little while ago, so it's not really an accident. More interestingly, the eShop listing has given us a silhouetted preview of the other two skin packs (as well as the new mode) coming to the game through the Season Pass.

Oh! Wow, that's good to hear! I didn't know this was also on the eShop. It's hard for me to get a read on what those other two are, haha.

RaphaelinSTL 10-14-2024 03:08 PM

And for those opting out of the digital deluxe, looks like the 1987 skin packs are about $3.50 on the Nintendo eShop.

Don't expect much, acording to the website i've ordered my collector's edition, the season pass includes:

- a set of skins (the 80's skins)
- new enemies (looks like Bishop's mechs)
- a hord mode

So yeah, nothing really worth of a season pass IMO

Ahh gotcha. Thanks for the info! Figured it probably wasn't anything too wild.
