During the latest episode of Xbox Expansion Pass, Tribute Game’s Narrative Designer Yannick Belzil confirmed that the game will not get additional costumes due to the amount of time needed to create animations.
The door, however, hasn’t been completely closed. Speaking on Twitter, Dotemu CEO Cyrille clarified that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge won’t feature alternative costumes at launch and that there are currently no plans to release DLC for the game, but things may change depending on the game’s reception and the feedback from the community.
— Cyrille Imbert (@CyrilleImbert) June 15, 2022 While the previous side-scrolling beat’em up published and developed by Dotemu, Streets of Rage 4, did not receive additional costumes as DLC, it did get a big expansion which added a Survival Mode with roguelike mechanics, additional special moves for all characters, and more. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is not being developed directly by Dotemu, so the same may not be happening, but it is undeniable that such an addition would work well in the soon-to-be-released game as well. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge launches tomorrow June 16th, on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
