Paramount Games Studio announced during the Summer Game Fest 2026 livestream on June 5 that PlatinumGames is developing a new game based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic series, titled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin. The game is described as an AAA action-adventure title. The story follows a lone surviving Turtle in a future, battle-ravaged New York City on a mission for justice. The comic series debuted in October 2020 and concluded in April 2022. The announcement trailer did not reveal gameplay details or show the usual four brothers, but featured imagery evoking the subtitle, including a sewer setting and a figure with two swords. The game is scheduled for release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. This marks PlatinumGames' return to the franchise after developing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan in 2016.
