Outright Games, a leading global publisher of family-friendly interactive entertainment, in collaboration with Paramount Game Studios, is excited to reveal a first glimpse of its highly anticipated video game based on Paramount Pictures’ recent blockbuster film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.
Capturing the playful teen spirit of the world’s most cherished pizza-loving crime-fighters, Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo, the game brings their infectious humour and combat skills to this story-driven 3D Brawler / Platformer as they face off against all new mutants in “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed.”
Oozing high-energy gameplay and an engaging, original storyline, the action-packed game follows on from the 2023 hit movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem which grossed over $180 million globally at the box office and received worldwide acclaim for its unique animation style.
In “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed”, after finally being accepted into society and pursuing their dream of attending a regular high school, the Turtles’ newfound happiness is abruptly interrupted by a new wave of mutants causing unrest across New York City. Players take control of the four masked heroes, each with their own unique playstyle, as they traverse the sewers and city streets of New York. With an immersive world to explore both above and below ground, meet familiar faces as the ragtag heroes in a half shell gear up to delight fans at home with their chaotic capers. Players can get ready to order in a pizza and adventure solo or team up with a friend in two player local co-op mode later this year.
The upcoming game is developed by A Heartful of Games, whose previous work with the publisher includes the fantastic family-friendly adventure DreamWorks Dragons: Legends of The Nine Realms.
Stephanie Malham, COO of Outright Games said: “We’re delighted to be continuing our collaboration with Paramount to deliver an exhilarating new chapter in the incredible universe of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. As a franchise that started in comic books and rocketed into a global phenomenon, we couldn’t be more excited to offer fans, new and old, a high-energy, interactive story-driven experience. We’re looking forward to sharing more of the dynamic universe we’ve created alongside A Heartful of Games in the coming months.”
Doug Rosen, SVP, Games and Emerging Media, Paramount, said: “Following the incredible success of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, we’re excited to collaborate with Outright Games to bring the Turtles universe to life. As the franchise celebrates its 40th anniversary and continues to attract new fans, we can’t wait to see gamers dive into the world of the most recent film in this fantastic new game.”
“Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed” will be released Q4 2024 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
