ROCKSTEADY STUDIOS RUMORED TO BE DEVELOPING A MATURE TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES TITLE. - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Manhattan Crisis is the alleged name- Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo are the four playable characters- each has their own varied move set and weapon of choice (sword, bo staff, sai, and nunchuck respectively).- Flashbacks are played as Master Splinter/Hamato Yoshi.- Shurikens, smoke bombs, grappling hooks, and climbing foot spikes.- Gameplay and story/stage progression similar to Batman: Arkham City.- Classic characters such as Bebop and Rocksteady (warthog and rhinoceros), Dr. Baxter Stockman, Shredder (Oroku Saki), and Krang act as bosses and in the case of the humans-turned-mutants, you fight them in both forms throughout the story.- The Turtle Van and Turtle Blimp will be present and with them and other gadgets, the Wii U build is expected to have touch screen controls for specific actions.- Multiplayer is unknown.- Graphics engine used is that of Arkham City.- The game is expected to be more dark than slapstick, but the turtles themselves and their interactions with the Foot Clan, bosses, and story characters like April O’Neil and Casey Jones will still have comedy attached.- Purportedly being in development for Wii U, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3.- Careful selection of voice actors to bring the universe to life as well as Rocksteady did with their two Batman games.- Manhattan Crisis shares a similar name to the 1991/1992 NES title, “The Manhattan Project”, but is very much its own title. If this is true, it is a dream-come-true for me. TMNT is as near-and-dear to my heart as Batman and the idea of having a game featuring the franchise by the people who created the best video game version of Batman of all time is exhilarating.  I hope that this is not a tie-in to any existing version of the franchise (even the new IDW series). But I think it will be very much its own thing, if it is actually happening, much like the Arkham titles are. It sounds like they are pulling from a lot of different sources. Perhaps this means that long-rumored Turtles film is making moves? I’d like to stress that this is a rumor and there’s a good chance it’s all made up. The story offers no sources other than being sent in by multiple people. I’m ready to have my heart broken, but for now I want to believe, if only for a moment, that dreams can come true.
