Last Ronin is getting a vidya adaptation
From Platinum Games no less
Great, since I haven't heard of or cared about TMNT since the 90s movie
>>154071478I actually came into here ready to talk spoilers, but I'll let that be a surprise to you.
>>154071143I'm surprised it's actually being made. Seemed like it got quietly cancelled for a while.
>>154071718No gameplay or release date shown. Seems far away still.While I am surprised that we got a trailer, I am still mostly certain it's going to get cancelled.Ninja Turtles is one of those saturday morning cartoon IPs that they try again and again to make it big but it just lacks the meat, the premise is too basic for it to become a multi-billion dollar franchise.Making a large budget AAA game out of it feels insanity. Cheaper stuff like that retro beat em up are the only sane games should be made with it.
>most edgy, violent tmnt comic as Mirage >most time is fighting the robots, and killing the human foot soldiers just offscreen>Mikey didn't kill the villain, the villain was killed by his own nanosuitLame
>A thread about something?>I'm gonna go in and tell everyone how much I don't care about it!Ok. Man, people on the internet are weird
>>154071143We've known this for years.
>>154071823But the franchise is big compared to pretty much all the other 80s cartoons.
>>154072378>If trash like Sonic is still aroundSonic is only around because (aside from the recent success of movies) the adult Sonic fanbase are totally fanatical spergs with little regard for the quality of games/media. Most franchises don't get blessed with that. TMNT doesn't have that kind of autismo base to milk from.>Bad writingNot a huge TMNT guy but from I have seen I trust this.>April race swapTrue it hurt a lot despite the incessant coping and gaslighting. Worse they also made her fat and ugly.But my point is even without these it would struggle a lot.You can look at the newest He-Man movie, which was well received, but is still going to bomb in the box office because these legacy Gen X franchises simply lack the meat carry expensive products in 2026.
>>154071478Glad you're here then, in a thread dedicated to such.
My blind wish for this game is:Mainly enemies are human instead of robotsHappy ending(Mikey survive) route just like Samurai Jack: Battle Through TimeMikey can executed Karai and her bastard son.
>>154071143>will almost certainly be more GoW 2018 and less GoW 2005Meh, if it’s fun at least, I might get it when it’s on sale.
>>154072193>We've known this for years.I thought it was plans for a movie that was probably cancelled by now that we knew about
I'm all atwitter.I'm giddy with anticipation.I may weep openly.
>>154073770Both.https://www.polygon.com/23645176/tmnt-last-ronin-video-game-graphic-novel-ninja-turtles/
>>154073770The game was announced at the same time. But the original devs at THQ fired half their workforce last year so everyone assumed it was dead.
>>154073335Nu-GoW is boring.

>This is a different project than the TMNT: The Last Ronin game revealed in 2023 with Black Forest Games and THQ Nordic. That one is defunct, Kittelsen said.>>This is Platinum’s second game in the series, following 2016’s Activision-published Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan. That game “did not get the kind of support that I think that the Turtles deserve or that Platinum deserves,” Kittelsen said. “So this was also a chance to do justice by Platinum’s TMNT fans and say, ‘Hey, let’s see what they can really do when we get some of the resources.”>>Kittelsen on Platinum’s pitch for the game: “On the face of it, the pairing of Platinum and The Last Ronin made a lot of sense just from a genre fit standpoint. But when we had the first conversation, the first pitch, it was about so much more than what I expected. I expected [them] to go deep into the action and the quality of combat dynamics. And instead we spent a lot more time talking about themes and character and the growth of the turtles and how we all were raised with this much simpler version of the Ninja Turtles in our mind… and now we live in a more complicated time, and we can’t have all the nice things we have when we were kids. There’s a twist on it, but we still want to build a better world for the next generation.”>>As for gameplay, per Kittelsen: “You’re a tank of a Ninja Turtle in this game. So it’s gonna play differently than Ninja Gaiden or Bayonetta might.”https://www.gamefile.news/p/paramount-games-studio-tmnt-last-ronin
>>154077036>This is a different project than the TMNT: The Last Ronin game revealed in 2023 with Black Forest Games and THQ Nordic. That one is defunctlmao it was canceled and now were getting a Ronin game from a different studio someone at Paramount most have high hopes for a Last Ronin vidya adaptation
If this game sale well, we'll probably see more Last Ronin Mikey porn art.
>>154077036>instead we spent a lot more time talking about themes and character and the growth of the turtles and how we all were raised with this much simpler version of the Ninja Turtles in our mindOh no. Oh nonononoo turtlebros... it's gonna be developers first "real" story
>>154077036>>154077374>>154078473They always say that, claiming they've read TMNT comics and watch cartoons, and say that they are TMNT fans, but ultimately it depends on the actual results they produce.
Last ronin fit better as a Platinum vidya than OG TMNT .Let's hope the development is alright, after NG4 and the Delta's spin off I regain hope for platinum.
