Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows Video Game

So the comics are back...and the toys are everywhere with no signs of slowing down...and the cartoon is going strong, but there was still a gaping hole in your heart that needed to be filled by wise crackin' mutant turtle kids...who are NINJAS...

We can fill that hole. (all of this sounded way better in my head.)


Activision Publishing, Inc. today announced that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles™: Out of the Shadows, a new, digital download-only video game inspired by Nickelodeon’s new hit animated series, will be available this summer. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is a third-person brawler game set in New York City, taking gamers through articulated, true-to-life environments filled with action-packed adventures as Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael.  Featuring an original hyper-realistic 3D-style, gamers can experience four-player online co-op play while stomping out the Foot Clan and unleashing turtle torment on any foe that gets in their way.


Just from the image up top, you have to be wondering what sort of style they were going for. Was this a game meant to release with a new movie that kept getting pushed back...because the Turtles gang haven't looked this ultra-real in a long time. Here's some more eye candy...



I'm not sure what disturbs me more..the pronounced nose holes or the humanistic (is that a word?) eyes. Funny how tweaking little details changes a beloved childhood cartoon into...

HORROR

Sure does look fun though when they are throwing out Kung Fu moves and not just standing there peering into your soul! Observe...


With an immersive world, deep character development, and an intuitive, skill-based combat system built around combo-driven action, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows puts ‘Turtle Power’ in players’ hands.

Developed by Red Fly Studio, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is expected to release this summer exclusively for digital download on Xbox LIVE® Marketplace, PlayStation®Network, and PC via Steam. This title is not yet rated by the ESRB.
