I donā€™t like touching my phone, so I donā€™t have any experience with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate. Itā€™s a top-down fighting game that looks pretty hack and slashy. There are dashes that probably have invincibility frames. It looks very Hades-like, but thereā€™s co-op. There has to be co-op. It would be an affront to good taste if a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game didnā€™t have co-op. Weā€™re not on the NES and Game Boy anymore.

Splintered Fate is said to feature ā€œan all-new story written by legendary comic book author Tom Waltz and Kevin Michael Johnson.ā€ The roguelite angle seems strange to me because Iā€™m pretty sure the turtles are married to their weapons, but apparently, there is a ā€œdiverse build systemā€ that allows you toĀ  ā€œcreate the elemental-infused Teenage Turtle of their dreams.ā€Ā 

Iā€™ve never dreamed of infusing a Teenage Turtle with elements, but I get what theyā€™re saying.

It also touts that it has received ā€œover 22,000 5/5 radical player reviews,ā€ which doesnā€™t mean much to me. Especially since the app store on my phone only says 1K ratings. Still, I looked up reviews and theyā€™re pretty positive, if maybe not enthusiastic. Still, if youā€™re into ā€˜90s-locked turtle ā€˜tude, it may be worth checking out.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate launches on Switch July 17 for $29.99.
