Nintendo has revealed that the highly acclaimed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate will launch exclusively on the Switch in July as a timed console release. Fortunately, fans of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise on other platforms may also get a chance to experience the game, as hints suggest a possible future release on additional consoles.

This period marks an exciting time for TMNT enthusiasts, with the upcoming arrival of TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants on April 23, available on all major platforms. For those unfamiliar, Wrath is a port of Raw Thrills' 2017 arcade title of the same name, but the console version brings enhancements such as new levels and boss battles. Fans can also anticipate other titles like Outright Games' TMNT: Mutants Unleashed, with Switch users particularly fortunate with the latest franchise news.

Developer Super Evil Megacorp will mark their console debut with the release of TMNT: Splintered Fate on the Switch in July. This roguelike mobile game has been revamped for the Nintendo platform, boasting enhanced graphics and sound, and featuring the four iconic turtle heroes cherished by TMNT fans. Splintered Fate offers fast-paced combat, a unique build system, cooperative play, and a roguelike element designed to provide ample replay value. Initially launched in May 2023 for iOS and Mac, the game has garnered positive reviews, boasting an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 from over 24,000 reviews.

Check Out the TMNT: Splintered Fate Switch Trailer

Splintered Fate presents a brand-new narrative co-crafted by TMNT comic book writer Tom Waltz and Super Evil Megacorp's creative director Michael Johnson. Players will engage in battles across four distinct New York City settings, packed with Easter eggs, collectibles, and familiar foes like Shredder, Bebop, and Rocksteady. While the duration of Splintered Fate's exclusivity on the Switch remains uncertain, it's highly probable that the game will eventually reach other platforms.

In addition to this release, TMNT: Mutants Unleashed is slated for a late 2024 launch on all major platforms, continuing the storyline from the recent Mutant Mayhem animated movie through an immersive 3D brawler-platformer experience.

The announcement of THQ Nordic's TMNT: The Last Ronin stirred up significant interest with its unveiling. The initial trailer showcased a darker theme for the franchise, although updates on the game have been scarce since its introduction in August 2023.
