• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City (VR) Review - 30 April 2026

  Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City sees the iconic parody series make the jump to VR platforms, bringing with it an original story and multiplayer mayhem that features some bright spots, but ultimately feels a bit under-realized to truly recommend. Licensed games can be hard to fully realize, as they often carry a certain amount of expectation from the fanbase. A limited budget and development time, on top of targeting something niche like a VR-only release, can further alienate and result in an end product that doesn’t quite live up to the clear ambitions it aims for. Unfortunately, T eenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City is an example of just that, a game that, despite featuring a wicked aesthetic that feels ripped straight out of the comics (and cartoons), doesn’t offer an engaging enough gameplay loop to make it worthwhile, even for diehard TMNT fans to check out. But befo…

• TMNT: Empire City - Dev Diary #10 - 26 March 2026

We didn’t want co-op to feel like a rigid system of rules, roles, and forced mechanics. The Turtles adapt and improvise, so we set out to build a flexible system to allow players to do that too.Learn more 👉 https://bit.ly/4r4do6dPlaying together will be a blast, but we appreciate that you probably want to know when you'll be able to play with your friends.
