Radical Side Scrolling Brawler Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge Announced by Dotemu and Tribute Games, Coming to PC and Consoles

Thrash Shredder and the Foot Clan in an All-New Romp Inspired by Classic TMNT Games Like the Beloved Smash Hit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time
