Another TMNT Game is Coming to Consoles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants is coming to Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and PC on April 23. The arcade game being ported to new platforms is just the latest development in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles news.
Recently,Fortnite introduced a TMNT-themed event that added weapons, items, emotes, backblings, and other cosmetics inspired by the popular franchise.
