Platinum Games and Activision have announced the Turtley Awesome that they will release the studios brand-new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action video game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan digitally and physically on PC, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, and PS3 on Tuesday 24th May 2016!
The release date was unveiled at the end of a new trailer featuring boss battle gameplay, including Bebop, Rocksteady, Krang, Armaggon, Karai, and Shredder, and a brief tease of Super Shredder!:
The new trailer is fairly similar to the first, building on a few of the key moments we saw between the Turtles and their iconic enemies, including Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady. A few story cinematics give you a flavour of the voice work, before giving way to some fantastic glimpses of the game's boss battles. There are plenty of moves that have the Turtles teaming up and combining their ninja skills, which appear to be both crucial to success and plain old fun to perform during online co-op.
Mutants in Manhattan is a third-person action game featuring New York's crime-fighting Heroes in a Half Shell. Players will protect The Big Apple from aliens, mutants and the Foot Clan in a single-player campaign or partner with up to three friends in four-player online co-op. But be prepared – defeating Bebop, Rocksteady, Shredder and other iconic bosses won't be easy!
PlatinumGames' flair for stylish visuals and fluid combat are on full display in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan. Fast-paced, team-based brawling will challenge gamers of all skill levels. Each Turtle has a distinctive combat play style and can be customised with a unique set of Ninjutsu moves, combat items and special bonuses.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan also features gorgeous, cel-shaded art design, with an original story from prolific author of IDW Publishing's acclaimed ongoing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, Tom Waltz.
Rated T for Teen, Mutants in Manhattan will be released just before Nickelodeon Movies and Paramount Pictures' brand-new TMNT movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, opening in theaters across the USA and cinemas across the UK on Friday 3rd June 2016.
