Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown Sets Xbox, Switch Release Date

The unusual duo of Scaffold and Paramount Game Studios revealed their plans to introduce the turn-based brawler, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown,” on Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch.

When does Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown come out on consoles?

Fans of Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch won’t have to wait too long before they can play TMNT: Tactical Takedown. The game will launch for consoles on August 14th. As of now, the cost for the console edition hasn’t been disclosed, but it’s currently $19.99 on Steam, so a similar price might be expected.

The game’s summary states that “Tactical Takedown offers a fresh take on the franchise, blending tactical turn-based strategy and physical combat.” Since Splinter and Shredder are no longer alive and the turtles are growing up, players engage in 20 progressively challenging levels, facing off against iconic adversaries such as the Foot Clan, embarking on an emotionally engaging rite of passage.

Moreover, the console edition of TMNT: Tactical Takedown comes with a Remix Mode as an extra feature. This mode is accessible at no cost for those who already own the Steam version and is built into the console version itself. The new mode will offer twice as many enemy types and more difficult confrontations compared to the standard gameplay.

This year, when TMNT: Tactical Takedown was initially released, it received a moderately positive response overall. Based on data from the review aggregator website Metacritic, it earned an average rating of 73 out of 100, based on 18 professional reviews.

Since launching El Paso, Elsewhere in 2023, Strange Scaffold has consistently put out a string of high-quality video games. Among them are I Am Your Beast, Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3, and Clickholding. When the studio announced TMNT: Tactical Takedown, founder Xalavier Nelson Jr. was thrilled about creating a game based on such a cherished franchise.

To craft a truly captivating licensed game that resonates with fans, one must hold the source material in high regard, nurture a passion for the community, and be open to redefining established elements to deliver something fresh and delightful. I owe immense gratitude to Doug Rosen and the team at Paramount for their partnership and faith in us, entrusting us with the task of creating an innovative take on this cherished universe that takes flight.
