PlatinumGames is developing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin, an AAA action-adventure game announced for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The studio also has a speaker on the first wave of talks at Game Makers Scramble 2026.
PlatinumGames' confirmed current project is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin, announced by Paramount Games Studio during the Summer Game Fest 2026 livestream on June 5. The game is an AAA action-adventure title, scheduled for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The story follows a lone surviving Turtle in a future, battle-ravaged New York City. The announcement trailer did not show gameplay or the usual four brothers, but featured a sewer setting and a figure with two swords. It is PlatinumGames' return to the franchise after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan in 2016.
The studio's other appearance in the coverage is at Game Makers Scramble 2026, whose first wave of 10 talks includes a PlatinumGames speaker among names from Cygames, Bandai Namco Studios, and Epic Games Japan. The event is set for August 30 at TOC Ariake Convention Hall and has moved from free entry to paid tickets, with early bird discounts until July 31. Beyond that speaking slot and The Last Ronin, nothing in the coverage states what else the studio is working on.
The remaining stories concern games PlatinumGames is not credited with developing. Stellar Blade, from Shift Up, comes to Switch 2 on November 6, 2026, and its Complete Edition adds four Bayonetta collaboration costumes. That crossover involves Bayonetta, a character PlatinumGames has worked with, but the stories do not tie the studio to the Stellar Blade release. A November 6 Steam update for NieR:Automata added Chinese and Korean language support and pushed the listed required disk space to 366.56GB. These items show the studio's characters and past work circulating in other publishers' releases, not new PlatinumGames projects.

Square Enix released an update to the Steam version of NieR:Automata on November 6, adding Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean support. The patch was the first update to the Steam build in about five years, and it added only language support. After it installed, Steam Library began reporting 366.56GB of required disk space for the game, while the store page still lists 50GB of free space, more than seven times less. The game was roughly 50GB before the patch. Each of the eight DLC entries in the library now reports 40.73GB, the same figure as the base game, and together the DLC account for 325.84GB. Players who deselect the DLC and install only the base game can install at 40.73GB. The official NieR account said it confirmed an issue where storage above expectations is displayed during installation and that the cause is under investigation. A temporary workaround is to uncheck DLC downloads in Steam properties.
