How did the idea to make the game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder’s Revenge germinate? Dotemu and Tribute Games reveal the scenes in the title of the video.
Who said Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were too old to hand out fluff? Not Dotemu and Tribute Games who got the green light from Nickelodeon for a new game: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder’s Revenge. Scheduled for 2022, the title invites us to learn more about the beginnings of the project.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder’s Revenge: A Kid’s Dream
Returning to the beginnings of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder’s Revenge, this is what Jean-François Major, co-founder of Tribute Games (the developers), and Cyrille Imbert, CEO of Dotemu (the publisher), offer us in a behind the scenes video.
What emerges from the interview is that TMNT Shredder’s Revenge is a “passion project” and a childhood dream for both men and their entire teams. Jean-François Major remembers his childhood dressing up as Donatello for Halloween, or his participation in the creation of the Ninja Turtles game on Game Boy Advance.
We even learn that a studio, not named in the video, has also pitched a similar software. Both also insist on the importance of keeping an old-school design, while bringing their touch of modernity.
A common desire
For Cyrille Imbert, CEO of Dotemu, Tribute Games is a partner of choice in the development of TMNT Shredder’s Revenge. The structure shares not only this love of the franchise but also knowledge in terms of beat’em all:
The reputation we’ve built through our exceptional partners, on modernizing great classics like Streets of Rage 4, has been crucial in starting this journey with Nickelodeon and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. Tribute Games clearly shares our passion for the TMNT universe.. Their deep understanding of the essence of beat ’em all and their unwavering devotion make them the perfect team to ensure Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is the evolution action fans deserve.
Jean-François Major, the co-founder of Tribute Games, is stunned by this opportunity:
Contributing to a universe as legendary as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an incredible opportunity on any level, but even after wrapping up a TMNT project years ago, I’ve always held onto the hope of creating an experience set in the time that so amazed me as a child. We finally found a partner who shares Tribute Games’ passion for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. To have the opportunity to continue the legacy of classic TMNT beat ’em alls that fans around the world have grown up with is surreal.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder’s Revenge will be available in 2022 on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. A game is also compatible with PS5 and Xbox Series X|S that will let you play April and Master Splinter, in addition to the pizza-loving reptiles.
