Samurai ShelldownThe Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic The Last Ronin is being adapted into a video game. The surprising but intriguing news was confirmed by Paramount Global's senior vice president for games, Doug Rosen. A developing studio, platforms, or release date was not revealed.
Released in 2020, TMNT: The Last Ronin tells of a single turtle ? wearing a black mask and wielding the iconic weaponry of all four Heroes in an Half-Shell ? as they pick their way through a dystopian, futuristic take of New York, seeking revenge for their fallen brethren. The identity of the turtle remains something of a mystery until its revelation further in the tale, making The Last Ronin a particularly grim entry to the TMNT pantheon.
According to Rosen, (in comments made to Polygon (https://www.polygon.com/23645176/tmnt-last-ronin-video-game-graphic-novel-ninja-turtles)), the video game adaptation will be a single-player adventure, though other characters will be playable in various flashbacks dotted throughout the story. Rosen makes illusions to The Last Ronin having gameplay similar to Sony Santa Monica's recent God of War releases ? likely referencing a dramatic, third-person, combat-heavy escapade. The title is in its very early pre-production stages, so it is understandable at least several years away from release.
While most of the TMNT video games tend to be of the standard brawler/fighter variety, TMNT: The Last Ronin could shape up to be something very different ? both tonally and from a gameplay perspective. While fans of The Fab Four await its arrival, they can still find plenty of digital entertainment in the great recent releases TMNT: Shredder's Revenge (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/tmnt-shredders-revenge-review-ninja-turtles-playstation-switch-brawler-dotemu-retro/) and TMNT: The Cowabunga Collection.
