Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem announced for Switch
Original: Outright Games’ new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game is called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem and it will be released on Switch. Game Informer has the scoop on this one.
The project was announced several months ago, but with just a few details. Outright was even keeping quiet on which platforms it would be supporting even though Switch seemed like a lock.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem is being made by A Heartful of Games. The 3D brawler/platformer picks up after the events of Mutant Mayhem and involves a new wave of mutants invading New York City. Players can expect a brand new story, all of the turtles being playable (and with unique playstyles), and support for two-player local co-op.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem launches Switch later in 2024.
Update: We have even more details now, which you can find below.
Capturing the playful teen spirit of the world’s most cherished pizza-loving crime-fighters, Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo, the game brings their infectious humor and combat skills to this story-driven 3D Brawler/Platformer as they face off against all new mutants in “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed.”
Oozing high-energy gameplay and an engaging, original storyline, the action-packed game follows on from the 2023 hit movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem which grossed over $180 million globally at the box office and received worldwide acclaim for its unique animation style.
In “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed”, after finally being accepted into society and pursuing their dream of attending a regular high school, the Turtles’ newfound happiness is abruptly interrupted by a new wave of mutants causing unrest across New York City. Players take control of the four masked heroes, each with their own unique playstyle, as they traverse the sewers and city streets of New York. With an immersive world to explore both above and below ground, meet familiar faces as the ragtag heroes in a half shell gear up to delight fans at home with their chaotic capers. Players can get ready to order in a pizza and adventure solo or team up with a friend in two player local co-op mode later this year.
The upcoming game is developed by A Heartful of Games, whose previous work with the publisher includes the fantastic family-friendly adventure DreamWorks Dragons: Legends of The Nine Realms. In the US, fans can head to Walmart to pick up an exclusive version of the standard game which includes an outfit code to unlock a late-game collectible earlier.
