Paramount Games Studio unveils its first project at Summer Game Fest: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin. Multiple outlets report that the game is presented as an AAA action-adventure title and is being developed by Platinum Games, with Paramount Games Studio handling publishing. The reveal is part of Paramount’s new in-house games efforts connected to its Skydance partnership. Polygon and Eurogamer describe the game as a darker, more mature take on the franchise, aligning it with the tone of the TMNT graphic novel The Last Ronin. Eurogamer notes the project has been in development for several years following an earlier announcement of a darker TMNT game inspired by the graphic novel, and that this reveal includes a first trailer, though details remain limited. Rock Paper Shotgun adds context from an earlier version of the game that had been developed by a different studio before layoffs and a change in the development arrangement led Paramount to bring Platinum on. Across sources, the common points are the Summer Game Fest announcement, Platinum’s development role, Paramount’s publishing role, and the game’s darker direction inspired by The Last Ronin comics.

2 months agoPlatinum Games, the game development studio that evidently are to edged weapon action games what Marks & Spencer are to inoffensive socks, are making a TMNT game. It’s called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin, it’s being published by Paramount Games Studio, and it’s just been announced as part of Summer Game Fest 2026. Keener fans of pizza-gnawing reptiles will remember that there was already a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin game in development at Destroy All Humans! remake studio Black Forest Games, to be published by THQ Nordic. Unfortunately, it seems that mass layoffs at the former have taken their toll, and Paramount – TMNT’s rights holders – have asked Platinum to have a go instead. Here’s the teaser trailer for the new version, which doesn’t show much, except that it's likely a close adaptation of the (unusually grim) Turtles comic of the same name. Read more
