With references to turtles deep cuts and obviously inspiration taken from the classic arcade and home console games, the game not only clearly love the source material and it's predecessors in gaming, but plays like a dream with a new combat system, new characters to play as and a leveling system, overworld map and complete with local or online cross platform 6 player co-op

Out now on Xbox (and Game Pass), PlayStation, Switch and PC

Can we please get a full lobby going?

localhjay

I'll workshop the OP when I get home but this game is like, Castle Crashers level of good

Krathoon

Limited run has the physicals. I also notice they have some of the console physicals coming out later this year on Amazon.
They got a PC big box on their site.

TexiKen

Is there a scene like in the arcade where Raphael gets kissed by April for saving her and it's always Raphael because the other turtles and Casey Jones are mega losers?!?!?!

No because April is a playable member of the team and doesn't need saving. Also, your arcade must have had a glitch, in mine it was always Michelangelo. April prefers party dudes to rude ones.

rahkeesh2000

The annoying cameraman DOES need saving though. Not that I can remember his name.

Krathoon

John Hancock is all a gaga over it.

I was waiting for Andre but he's only done a short so far, but he'll definitely do a full video lmao

JMan711

Is there any major differences between the console versions? I'm deciding between my PS5 and Switch and not sure which to get it for.

Krathoon

They all seem identical. I would get it on the Switch so it is portable. I got it on the laptop.
The laptop seems to have trouble rendering it to the tv when I close it. That was working with other stuff.

BronzeKoopa

One minor thing I dislike is that you don't seem to have invincibility frames when you drop in after losing a life. So if you spawn into a crowd you can potentially eat some juggles.

Overall still really fun but maybe a bit easy, I choose the middle difficulty for story mode. Might try the highest one on arcade mode.

localhjay

The challenges to not get hit are probably never gonna happen for me lmao

Johnny Chopsocky

This game RULES.

Beat Story Mode with Leo, and I'm now going through it again with Mikey. Love that they actually feel different in quantifiable ways.

Also Wu-Tang is for the children Turtles

King Riptor

Liking it so far. All the homages are breaking my brain and Im on level 3

localhjay

Donnie is the best sorry nerds

TexiKen

Played the first three levels, enjoy the sincerity of the game, very fun. Feels like there's some cheap feel to getting hit sometimes on frames which annoys me only because you've created a backflip/dodge button but the animations seem to just go "nope" to it. Also I wouldn't mind it if challenges didn't involve not getting hit for a whole level. With Streets of Rage 4 you were gonna get hit, the player and cpu were in agreement and it became a matter of playing off the patterns and verticality.

Rehab

Pretty pleased with the combo I just got!

Yeah. They should have had those frames in there. That is pretty standard for a brawler. The developers may bee to young to realize that.

localhjay

Also I hope they do DLC and/or more characters, they could really go wild with additional characters. I want Venus De Milo, Robo Turtles, Night Watcher, Usagi Yojimbo, etc etc

Dotemu has a great behind the scenes I added to the OP

Prohass

I got 246 hits, 4 off the achievement

At least I know a good place to try for it, the sewer with a power up spin attack and a bunch of mousers to juggle

cooljammer00

Everyone is saying this game is great and like, I can't believe I'm hyped for a tmnt beat em up in the year 2022

Prohass

Putting it on gamepass really helps get word of mouth out there, cos I have no affinity for beat ‘em ups and a general like of the turtles as a child of the 80s, so I probably wouldn’t have rushed out to buy it, but being able to play it for free got me recommending it to everyone

I know the exact spot you are talking about. Helps that the big mousers spawn little mousers too. Also, nicely done!

Lately I've been working from home (tech support) and playing a lot of this so it has got me thinking . . . maybe, I'm more Donatello than Ralph or Mikey. Right now I'm "doing machines" 8 hours a day, 40 days a week. Not much of a party dude right now due to Covid and I would like to think I'm cool but yeah, not really rude. Donatello it is?! I wish that I knew the attributes of Slash. For some reason I have a pretty badass pic of that guy saved to downloads on my phone.

Unfortunately those damn big mousers have that grab that I can never read, but I could see a way to just avoid them and keep killing their spawns.

Also got a glitch where I finished a level and the music just ended and left me there, not cutting to the cut scenes

Also splinter does so much damage holy shit

Rehab

With those big mousers I'm just always moving and on the ground as little as possible. Rising Y + B upper into dive kicking and jumping and attacting out of that the other direction as soon as I land to open up the same combo on another one. When I try to get too fancy with those guys I tend to fuckup.

Right now my biggest stumbling blocks are axe and sword foot soldiers. I know what to do but when there are multiple of them things can get dicey. There is a pink foot soldier that jumps back and throws daggers that can be a problem too. If you get downed and don't get the fuck out of dodge immediately that guy can get some more quick hits in with his backwards jump throw and be a bit of a pain.

LBD_Nytetrayn

I haven't gotten to play it yet -- waiting until later today/tonight. (Hope it's okay if I mention this here.)

https://twitter.com/PoisonMushroomO/status/1537887826078883841

Been looking forward to it. Everything I've heard sounds great! I just hope they didn't pull a Turtles in Time Konami move and lock the ending away behind the hardest difficulty.

Oh man this worked! 398 hits! Managed to keep the combo going until the boss. Was April, just spammed rhe shit out of the rising kick, but man my hand hurts pressing the A and X button on Xbox controller so much!

Rehab

HOLY FUCK!

They had some really good pixel art animators on this one. Is it the same people that did the Scott Pilgrim game?

Krathoon

The 2014 TMNT film kind of looks good. Heh.

It is the same team yes. Which is shocking because while I love the fuck out of that game, the combat was fairly clunky. This is leagues ahead of that.

Rehab

This music during the

Super Shredder

fight is just begging for someone like Brandon Small to do a death metal cover.

Have been getting the music to Panic in the Sky stuck in my head too.

https://youtu.be/QZfm3cvdTR4

localhjay

The level 7 theme is absolutely a Ninja Rap reference in tune

AlphaRomero

Am I missing something on PC? I can't start the game without using mouse/keyboard for obvious reasons but if I plug a controller in it then treats it as a second player.

Foreverender

Is there scaling? Like I played through the first few levels solo on the middle difficulty and it’s been pretty easy, so if you have 4 players running around, do they up the enemy count or HP or damage, etc?

AlphaRomero

Ok so I know Uncle Phil is dead, but what is this Shredder voice?

Yes, more players means more enemies. I haven't tried 6 players, but on 4 player, the amount of Foot Clan gets hilarious.

Is the music better than this? Because I don't think it gets better than this.

Dug Danger

Looks like the RE 2, 3 and 7 X/S upgrades are out now.

Didn't realize 7 was getting the treatment too. Installing all 3 again. Been pretty excited for this.

skeldare

Played through story mode and loved every minute of it.

Now to just get Konami off their asses and announce a release date for the Cowabunga Collection. I don't expect it any time soon, since they probably don't want to take away sales from either but I just want to know WHEN.

AlphaRomero

Finished story mode, I enjoyed it, I don't quite get going to the effort of getting a lot of the original actors back and then getting John from accounting to do a terrible read for Shredder. I think it is built for multiplayer though, the older games I enjoyed playing just on the virtue of it, and I'd take AI controlled turtles because going through it with a solo turtle is pretty disheartening. Definitely a better party game imo than solo.
