‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Game In Development? More Details About New Project Leaked
The "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" is about to get back to business. A leaked listing on the upcoming installment confirmed that a new game is in development and the world's favorite reptiles will soon be hitting the streets once again.
According to a report from GameSpot, a posting on the Australian Classification Board website revealed the new title in the works as "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan". The listing tagged the developer of the upcoming game as Platinum Games and the publisher as Activision. Neither company has come forward to provide more details on their project yet.
"Mutants in Manhattan" will reportedly feature an M rating for mild impact themes, mild impact violence and mild impact language.
The last "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" game was released back in 2013 dubbed "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows". The action adventure game was released by Activision, but developed by Red Fly Studios. It had a lukewarm reception from the community due to technical problems. The Xbox 360 version scored a low average of 38 on Metacritic.
While Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo haven't starred in a video game since "Out of the Shadows", the heroic reptiles have had plenty of action in other titles. Just recently, the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" favorites were part of a free DLC pack for "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5".
A report from Game Rant revealed that the artist-inspired turtles were featured as playable characters in the skating game. Also with them as a new character in "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5" is rapper Tyler the Creator.
The first trailer of the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2" film is also expected to drop within the month of December, alongside "Star Wars: The Force Awakens". According to a report from Comic Book, the news was announced by "Arrow" star Stephen Amell during the Heroes and Villains Fan Fest in San Jose last month.
"If you're a 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' fan, then you're going to want to go to the theater in December before a relatively big movie that's being released for a fantastic trailer," Amell teased the audience about the film's pilot trailer.
Amell is a new face appearing on the sequel named Casey Jones and he will be joining returning cast member Megan Fox who reprises her role as April O'Neil in the film. "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2" is slated to be released in theaters on June 3, 2016.
