Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin Announced To Be in Development
/
Publisher THQ Nordic announced during their games showcase that developer Black Forest Games is developing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
It was reported back in March (thanks Gameinformer) that a video game was being developed based on the TMNT graphic novel The Last Ronin but there wasn’t much info about it since then.
Now, we get a teaser with no gameplay, but at least we get an idea of how it will look.
Here’s a quick synopsis provided by the publisher.
Who is the Last Ronin? In a future, battle-ravaged New York City, a lone surviving Turtle embarks on a seemingly hopeless mission seeking justice for the family he lost. From the minds of the creators of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and based on the best-selling comic book event by Eastman, Waltz, Bishop, Delgado, and the Escorza Brothers: the official video game adaptation of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin.
In an interview with Polygon a senior vice president for games and emerging media at Paramount Global shared that The Last Ronin game will be a single-player action RPG similar to the modern God of War series. It will have a more mature tone as well.
The Last Ronin was published back in 2020 and it was a five-issue mini-series by IDW. Three of the four turtles have been killed and the surviving turtle dons a black mask and seeks revenge and does so by using both his and the weapons of his fallen brothers.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is now my favorite title from the Persona team by far. It’s one of those rare games where its main pillars work harmoniously, and you get lost in its charm. It’s a pristine JRPG, with enough style and substance to satisfy hardcore JRPG fans, Persona fans, and even those who rarely touch JRPGs.
