TMNT: Tactical Takedown Lands on Consoles August 14 with Free Remix Mode
Fans of tactical turn-based combat and the Heroes in a Half Shell have something exciting to look forward to! Strange Scaffold, the studio behind the innovative Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown, has announced that their first turn-based TMNT game will arrive on consoles on August 14. The game, which first launched on PC in May, is making its way to Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch, bringing with it a brand-new "Remix Mode" that will also be a free update for PC players.
Remix Mode: A Fresh, Challenging Take
The new Remix Mode promises to shake up the gameplay experience with significant additions and increased difficulty. This isn't your typical New Game+; remixed versions of levels unlock immediately after completing their regular counterparts, even if you’re playing Tactical Takedown for the very first time. Here’s what players can expect:
- New Enemies: The roster of foes has more than doubled, forcing players to adapt their strategies for every battle. Prepare to face unexpected threats like a beefy enemy wielding an air conditioner or elite fighters with new, tricky abilities.
- Heightened Difficulty: Familiar tactics might not cut it anymore. Enemies won't always be knocked off the map after an attack, and some may simply stand their ground, blocking paths and disrupting your carefully laid plans.
- Build Creation: Survival will depend on intelligently selecting techniques and upgrades. The game also allows players to manually increase the difficulty even further for an ultimate challenge.
A Unique Vision for the Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown offers a truly unique perspective on the beloved franchise. Set in a darker future where both Splinter and Shredder are gone, the Turtles have grown up and drifted apart. Each brother embarks on their own 20-level campaign, where arenas dynamically change mid-battle, expanding or shrinking and introducing new hazards to navigate.
Beyond pure strategy, style is also a key component of the game. The visuals are designed to resemble a living graphic novel, complete with diorama-like environments, miniature figures, vibrant paint splatters, and a powerful soundtrack composed by RJ Lake, known for his work on I Am Your Beast. Players can customize the moves and abilities of Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo, tailoring each hero to their preferred playstyle.
Positive Reception on PC
Since its PC release in May, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown has been warmly received by players on Steam. While the game currently has 110 reviews, an impressive 90% of them are positive, indicating a strong appreciation for its innovative gameplay and unique take on the TMNT universe.
With its upcoming console release and the addition of the challenging Remix Mode, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown is set to offer an exciting and fresh experience for both new players and those who have already enjoyed the PC version. Get ready to lead the Turtles into battle with a whole new level of tactical depth this August!
