This time, a game is being made from the animated movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.

The film recently debuted in cinemas (the Jeff Rowe-directed animated feature film started its airings worldwide a month ago), so it’s been a quick turnaround to Outright Games making a game adaptation. This British publisher mainly deals with licensed games for children (they’ve made games with IPs such as Ben 10, Hotel Transylvania, Transformers, and Peppa Pig… with questionable quality), so we should be prepared for a playable product for younger audiences.

Here’s the publisher’s overview of the project: “Taking place months after the movie’s events, the game will feature unique visuals inspired by the film’s bold, painterly art style. Combining energetic ninja teamwork gameplay with a humorous narrative, players will take control of the Turtles as they interact with a host of memorable characters from the franchise and fight to save this stylized take on New York City from a new mutant threat. Considered one of the most popular kids’ franchises, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a classic, global property created in 1984 by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. It first debuted as a successful comic book series and became a hit animated TV show, a live-action television series, and later spawned numerous blockbuster theatrical releases. The property is a global consumer products powerhouse, winning in every category that has hit shelves to date—with toys, apparel, video games, DVDs, and more—and generating billions of dollars at retail.”

Outright Games chief operating officer Stephanie Malham wrote in a press release, “Nickelodeon is one of our longest-standing licensing collaborators, and we’re overjoyed to have the opportunity to bring the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to life in a brand new and original video game. This is one of the world’s most enduring and beloved franchises, and we’re beyond excited to use our expertise to expand the Turtles’ global reach even further through the world of video games.”

Paramount senior vice president of games and emerging media Doug Rosen added, “It’s exciting to launch our first console game set in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem universe, especially as the franchise only continues to grow. The vibrancy of this new film’s animation lends itself perfectly to video games, and we can’t wait for everyone to play it.”

The game will be available on PC and unspecified consoles sometime in 2024. No further details are available yet.
