Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3DS boxart

Activision has announced another new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game for 3DS, developed by Magic Pockets. It will be available on August 8, in time for the release of Paramount Pictures’ film of the same name.

Here’s an official overview:

Mad genius Baxter Stockman’s mutant and robotic horrors have teamed up with the shadowy armies of the Foot Clan to terrorize New York City, and only Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo and Donatello can protect its subways, sewers, rooftops and streets from their devastating campaign.

This Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles title is a third-person action game with fast-moving hack-and-slash gameplay. Players will be able to swap between the four main characters at any time. Each turtle has its own strengths and skills based on their personality, ranging from Mikey’s speed to Raph’s brute force. The game also lets players evolve in power over time by gaining new levels, abilities and stat points. New weapons can be crafted back at the Turtle’s Lair from raw materials collected throughout the adventure.

The Legend of Korra A New Era Begins

A listing on Amazon provides a few more details about Activision’s 3DS game based on The Legend of Korra TV series. This version of the game is fully titled “The Legend of Korra A New Era Begins”.

The Legend of Korra A New Era Begins features an original storyline penned by the show’s creators much like the console game. Players will be able to change bending styles at any time, and in doing so, can execute combos. It will also be possible to enter the Avatar state.

Finally, Amazon has a tiny tidbit about The Legend of Korra A New Era Begins’ storyline. Korra and the rest of the gang will need “to stop an ancient evil that has emerged from the portal and threatens the balance of both worlds”.
