Strange Scaffold Reveals Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown at PC Gaming Show
The turn-based beat-em-up offers a new spin on TMNT, arriving in 2025
El Paso, TX – December 5, 2024 – Cowabunga! Strange Scaffold is proud to unveil Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown, the first-ever turn-based TMNT game from the developer behind I Am Your Beast, El Paso, Elsewhere, and more.
Developed by Strange Scaffold, and in partnership with Paramount Game Studios, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown is a kinetic turn-based beat-em-up that mashes together the cerebral play of tactics games with the high-flying action that fans love about TMNT.
Play as each of the four iconic Turtles — Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo — and take the fight to the nefarious Foot Clan, among other iconic villains. Brawl it out in mutating levels, from the rooftops to the sewers, as the turtles confront the rise of a dangerous new leader. Each playable Turtle has their own mini-campaign, where you wield unique movesets and utilize super moves to turn the tide against opponents in strategic, turn-based battles.
Perfect for quick-play sessions that feel meaningful, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown’s fast-paced encounters only take minutes to complete. Eventually, players progress toward a dramatic finale, in which the Turtles must unite against evil forces.
"Building a truly powerful licensed game requires a deep respect for the source material, love for the fans, and a willingness to challenge tentpoles of the universe to create something that both surprises and delights," said Xalavier Nelson Jr., founder of Strange Scaffold. "Bringing that kind of experience to life requires an equally powerful relationship – so I will be forever grateful to Doug Rosen and the team at Paramount for their collaboration, and putting their trust in our team to make an original take on the world that soars. I get to make a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game where the very first lines of dialogue establish that Shredder and Splinter are dead. Who else can say that?"
“Working with Xalavier Nelson Jr. and his team at Strange Scaffold has been an incredible experience,” said Doug Rosen, SVP, Games & Emerging Media, Paramount. “From our first conversation, it was clear Xalavier’s vision for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown would exceed our expectations, and his approach to bringing fans into the creative process is perfect for a beloved, multi-generational brand like TMNT. We really look forward to being able to share this with gamers everywhere next year.”
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown launches in 2025 on PC through Steam. For more information, follow Strange Scaffold on X.
