Once again taking players behind-the-scenes, the folks over at Tribute Games and Dotemu are discussing their process to modernize beat ‘em ups. They are doing this as they work on their upcoming title, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, which is going to be a sequel title to act as a series return for the classic games.
“We designed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge to resemble a season of the classic 1987 cartoon series, treating each stage as if it was its own distinct episode,” said Tribute Games Co-Founder Jonathan Lavigne. “Pairing elements of the wider TMNT universe with the inventive styles of battle fans know to expect from the Turtles resulted in the non-stop pacing of an action movie, and the game’s balance of this iconic world’s personality with lighthearted fights is a rush to play.”
I never would have thought I would see some of my favorite series return with brand new games instead of remasters, but I’m glad it is happening and that there is so much passion behind it. Plus, they chose to team up with Dotemu who just did an amazing job with Streets of Rage 4, which even got an awesome DLC that was well worth it. These behind-the-scenes videos make me all the more excited for the game’s release this summer!
TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge is set to release on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
