The publisher behind Streets of Rage 4 has announced a new TMNT game titled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge for consoles and PC.
Tribute Games - the original developer behind Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game - and Dotemu - publisher of Streets of Rage 4 - have announced that they are working on a new side-scrolling brawler in the TMNT universe. With a pixel art style that mimics the classic arcade games published by Konami, Shredder's Revenge will take the turtles on a brand-new adventure across Manhatten.
Shredder's Revenge will allow you to play on your own or grab a group of buddies to take on classic villains such as Bebop, Rocksteady, and Krang with traditional beat-em-up combat across a range of timeless locations. Each location will have items that can be used to defeat your enemies, all of which are directly inspired by the 1987 TV show. Each turtle will also have their own unique combat style keeping the game fresh after each run.
Right now, the game doesn't have any kind of release date, and the game's Steam page only states the game is "Coming Soon". Shredder's Revenge will also be coming to consoles, although it's still unknown as to which consoles. We'll likely learn more about the game in the near future but PC players can wishlist the game on Steam to be notified when it becomes available.
As previously mentioned, Shredder's Revenge is being developed by Tribute Games who published Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game before it was originally delisted. Some of Tribute's other works include popular indie titles like Flinthook and Curses 'N Chaos.
Shredder's Revenge is also being published by Dotemu, the publishers behind retro classics such as Streets of Rage 4, Windjammers 2, and Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap. Both companies are very experienced with brawlers and retro-style video games so Shredder's Revenge is certainly in good hands. Keep an eye out for more information on the game in the coming months.
