Find out more about the development of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge in a new video series from Dotemu and Tribute Games.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is one of our most highly anticipated games. The side-scrolling brawler is in development at Tribute Games and will be released on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One later this year.
In a new video, studio co-founder Jean-Francois Major and Cyrille Imbert from publisher Dotemu discuss their love for the franchise and their journey to develop a new game based on the classic 1987 TMNT designs.
Speaking about the project, Major says:
“Contributing to an iconic universe like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an incredible opportunity on any level, but even after completing a TMNT project years ago, I always held out hope that I’d be able to create an experience set in the original era that inspired so much of my childhood wonder. We finally found a partner that shares Tribute Games’ passion for the Heroes in a Half Shell’s debut. Getting to continue the legacy of the classic, beloved TMNT beat-em-ups that fans around the world grew up playing is surreal.”
Imbert adds:
“The reputation we’ve built with exceptional partners through modern classics like Streets of Rage 4 was vital to beginning our journey with Nickelodeon and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. Tribute Games clearly shares our passion for the world of TMNT. Their deep understanding and devotion to the essence of classic beat-em-ups makes them the perfect force to ensure Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is the evolution of brawling fans deserve.”
The full video – titled Once upon a shell – is well worth watching.
Ahead of the game’s release, fans will also be able to enjoy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection, which brings together 13 classic games from the 80s and 90s.
