TMNT: Shredder’s revenge lands next week with 6-player co-op

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge just got a shell-shocking release date confirmed at Summer Game Fest alongside a new trailer confirming a new character and six-player co-op support. The retro beat-em-up is launching on consoles and PC next week on June 16.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge - Gameplay overview

TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge is described by its developer, Tribute Games, as a love letter to that golden age of arcade beat em’ ups and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. Like the arcade games before it, Shredder’s Revenge allows players to take the helm of the four heroes in a half shell and take on Shredder, the Foot, and other villains from the 1987 cartoon series.

The game was originally announced last year at Gamescom 2021. Dotemu is publishing the game, a studio that’s known for its critically acclaimed retro revivals. It’s best known for 2020’s Streets of Rage 4, as well as this year’s indie standout Windjammers 2.

The game leans heavily into fan service. The original turtles’ voice actors from the cartoon are reprising their roles for the game and it’ll feature classic playable characters like Master Splinter, April O’Neil, and the newest addition Casey Jones. It also is launching with both online and couch cooperative multiplayer, each supporting up to six players. Players can also experience two ways to play with not only a standard arcade mode, but a story mode, which features side-missions, more unlockable content, a level-up system, extra challenges, and collectibles.

Players can team up, order a pizza, and give a loud “cowabunga” with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge when it releases on June 16, for Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch.

Don’t sleep on the Nintendo Switch 2’s most underrated launch game

The Nintendo Switch 2 has officially been out in the world for a full week. In that time, I've completed Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour, beaten every cup in Mario Kart World, and even dipped into some upgraded games like The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. If you're in the same boat, then the wait until Donkey Kong Bananza's July 17 release probably seems excruciating right now. What are you going to play until then? Maybe it's a good time to check out the Nintendo Switch 2's other launch game.

Fast Fusion, the latest racing game by Shin'en, launched on June 5 alongside the Nintendo Switch 2. As you can imagine, the small release was a bit overshadowed by Mario Kart World on day one. I had skipped it myself until a few days ago when I realized that it only costs $15, making it one of the system's least expensive new games. I picked it up out of pure curiosity, and I'm very glad I did. If you squint your eyes, Fast Fusion is basically an F-Zero game -- and a very good one at that.
