There's a new TMNT game in town and it's unlike anything the franchise has attempted before. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical TakedownAs the name suggests, it is a turn-based strategy role-playing game. This means that players will control characters on a grid-based map, with each turn representing a move or action of some kind.
There is one thing that sets this game apart from its SRPG cousins. Battles take “minutes” to complete, which is a far cry from time-consuming affairs. . From the trailer, the fights look even more intense than those in the Mario + Rabbids series. Additionally, players control each turtle independently in a solo campaign before teaming up to take on a boss.
The graphics look cartoony and branded, reminiscent of a D&D miniatures tabletop session. It seems like all of the turtles' favorite places to hang out are represented here, from the sewers to the New York subway system. This could be a good way to attract new players to the genre.
This is a unique entry in the TMNT franchise, but it's also a new type of game for developer Scaffold Games. This is the company that brought us the and the third person shooter . The company also made I am your beast and Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator. None of these titles are turn-based tactical RPGs.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown will be released for PC next year. You can reserve the game. . Publisher Paramount Game Studios hasn't said anything about a possible console release, so maybe hold off on hosting that pizza party.
