Super Evil Megacorp has announced that their roguelite turtle game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate, is on July 17🐻. It was for iOS via Apple Arcade and is now coming to a more thumb-friendly platform.
I don’t like touching my phone, so I don’t have any experience with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate. It’s a top-down fighting game that looks pretty hack and slashy. There are dashes that probably have invincibility frames. It looks very Hades-like, but there’s co-op. There has to be co-op. It would be an affront to good taste if a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game didn’t have co-op. We’re not on the NES and G꧙ame Boy anymore.
Splintered Fate is said to feature “an all-new story written by legendary comic book author Tom Waltz and Kevin Michael Johnson.” The roguelite angle s💝eems strange to me because I’m pretty sure the turtles are married to their weapons, b🌌ut apparently, there is a “diverse build system” that allows you to “create the elemental-infused Teenage Turtle of their dreams.”
I’ve never dreamed of infusing a Teenage Turtle with elements, but I get what they’re say🎀ing.
It also touts that it has received “over 22💎,000 5/5 radical player reviews,” which doesn’t mean much to me. Especially since the app store on my phone only says 1K ratings. Still, I looked up reviews and they’re pretty positive, if maybe not enthusiastic. Still, if you’re into ‘90s-locked turtle ‘tude, it may be worth checking out.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate launches on Switch July 17 for $29.99.
