Under Ubisoft’s exclusive worldwide license agreement with 4Kids Entertainment, Inc. and The Mirage Group, it is expected that video games will be released to coincide with the release of the movie early in 2007. No official announcement has been made regarding the platforms on which the new Turtles game will be released.
The original live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies had somewhat of a light hearted comedy element to them, but the new CG movie is said to be much grittier and more in line with the original comic-book series.
“We are excited that the Turtles are returning to the big screen in 2007 and pleased to partner with Ubisoft for the creation of a new movie-based Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video game,” said Alfred R. Kahn, Chairman and CEO of 4Kids Entertainment.
“Ubisoft is thrilled to be bringing the Turtles back in an exciting new adventure that will attract both the first generation of enthusiasts all the way through to the current and future generations of fans,” said Christian Salomon, director of licensing at Ubisoft.
Given Ubisoft’s stellar effort with the King Kong license this might turn out ok, providing Shredder doesn’t get his evil hands on it.
