New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Game From Activision

Activision’s partnership with Nickelodeon continues.

At the San Diego Comic-Con this past weekend, the partners announced that they’re working on a second Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video game, one that will follow next month’s forthcoming Out of the Shadows with something more kid friendly.

The game is simply called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and it is a “side-scrolling action brawler,” one that will feature an “authentic storyline” based on the series, as well as a “load of combat and animated scenes.” The game will also include character upgrades, secondary items and multiple gameplay modes.

“We’re thrilled to debut this new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video game for our younger Turtles fans,” said Nickelodeon’s Senior Vice President of Entertainment Products, Sherice Torres. “Jam-packed with all the ninjas, nunchucks and non-stop action Turtles fans crave, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is set to delight fans around the globe when it launches in time for the holidays.”

The game is expected to release October 22nd for Xbox 360, Wii and 3DS.  The console versions will have four-person support, with drop-in and drop-out gameplay.

We’ll have a first look in the weeks ahead.
