'TMNT: Splintered Fate' Launches First Female Playable Character + New Content in All-New Alopex DLC

Super Evil Megacorp has officially launched their new DLC for the award-winning roguelike brawler, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate.

'TMNT: Splintered Fate' Launches First Female Playable Character + New Content in All-New Alopex DLC

The new DLC introduces none other than the mutant arctic fox Alopex as the game’s newest character, becoming the first female playable character in the game. The Alopex DLC is available now on Steam, Epic Store, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PlayStation 4/5

Alopex is not just any fox, she is a powerful ninja assassin that slashes enemies with ease and has the ability to temporarily become invulnerable in the face of multiple foes. She’s here, she’s fierce, and she’s ready to enact her revenge against Shredder. 

And that’s not all, the Alopex DLC features five new artifacts to help switch up your runs.

The DLC launch also brings with it some free content for all players to enjoy, adding four fresh Pepper challenges and a new prestige system to show off your accomplishments, as well as additional combat rooms and quality-of-life improvements.

New Alopex DLC Joins The Fight In TMNT: Splintered Fate

Alopex joins the fight as our latest playable character in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate. She's ready for action... and to get back at Shredder!

Alopex DLC Launch Trailer


We are excited to launch our latest DLC content, alongside a free game update packed with new content. Here’s what’s new:

  • New playable character - Alopex (Paid DLC): Our mutant Arctic Fox brings all her ninja assassin powers to the brawl. She swings her sickle-like kama around her, slicing foes with ease. She tosses kunai at close range to deal a major blast of damage. And the best part-- she can briefly become invulnerable while targeting multiple enemies in rapid succession. Ninja powers that modify shuriken also affect her kunai, so try her out with the Ninja, Flame, and Water Powers for major impact.
  • 5 Artifacts (Paid DLC): Play with 5 Artifacts that can modify your run in interesting ways:
    • Polar Bear Netsuke - Every 10 seconds, Final Strike will throw out a line of flames. Cooldown is halved under half health.
    • The Maltese Hamster - Your Tool charges slower, but deals extra Damage.
    • Channel Six Mini Camera - Your Special charges slower, but deals extra damage.
    • Hot Cocoa (with Marshmallows) - You have -1 dash. When you dash, gain a burst of movement speed.
    • Buddy the Wraith - You have an allied Utrom Wraith, which levels up and evolves over a run
  • 4 Pepper challenges in Arcade mode (Free): Think you have mastered the Arcade Mode? Take a bite on an extra dose of difficulty with our new 4 Pepper runs. They are spicy hot! These challenges kick off with hexes already applied– do you have what it takes to overcome them?
  • Ninja Ranks (Free): Show your skills with pride with our new prestige system. Increase your badge prestige and rep by finishing more runs.
  • New Combat Rooms (Free): Many new combat rooms are available in Sewers, Docks, Streets, and Rooftops within the main campaign.
  • Additional balancing and quality of life improvements.

New Alopex DLC Joins The Fight In 'TMNT: Splintered Fate'

We’ve had a lot of fun bringing our (long overdue) first female playable character to life. Alopex’s story brings to light her relationship with former sister-in-arms, Karai, and her journey to find the strength to overcome her past. 

We hope you enjoy the updates and additional free content. For more details of all content, check out our patch notes below. And don’t forget to follow Super Evil Megacorp on social media for the latest news, community highlights, and future updates!

Alopex
Alopex is our latest playable DLC character, and she’s also our fastest! Zip around the battlefield with the Arctic Fox mutant sure to become a new favorite. Become invulnerable during her Special attack as she slashes nearby enemies, and shoot a barrage of kunai as her starting Tool. Check out her Product Page for more info!

Arcade Mode 4-Pepper Challenges
Each portal in Arcade Mode now contains a new 4-pepper challenge. These challenges are designed to need a significant amount of Upgrades to complete. So veterans, these are for you.

Players will start these Challenges with Hexes already applied, so figuring out how to overcome them is key. Be sure to pay attention to these Hexes when selecting the Challenge! You can also see them in your Run Details as with other Hexes that you choose.

Players will need to complete the Mondo Metropoloso (3rd Manic Metropolis Challenge) to unlock the 4th Challenge in each location.

Ninja Ranks
Ninja Ranks are ranks earned by defeating Shredder (even in the new Arcade Mode 4-Pepper Challenges)! Players will receive an icon next to their health bar that showcases their veterancy in TMNT: Splintered Fate. With this feature, we wanted to not only encourage the players starting their journey to complete the campaign story, but also honor the players who have gone above and beyond to help those players and share Splintered Fate with others. The ranks are as follows:
