The biggest surprise from Injustice 2 ’s Fighter Pack 3 was the inclusion of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. After the release of Atom and Enchantress, fans of the best fighting game of 2017 are finally getting to see what the TMNT can do in a brand new gameplay trailer.
Brief snippets from the Fighter Pack 3 reveal trailer showed off a bit of the TMNT’s abilities, but this is the first time their fighting capabilities are on full display.
Check out the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in action below.
Each Turtle has his own fighting style in Injustice 2 . Michelangelo uses his knuckuko to string combos together, but his signature weapon looks to be his skateboard. He can launch it at the opponent and even uses it when throwing enemies.
Donatello’s part in the trailer shows him hiding his limbs inside his shell and launching himself across the screen. This can also be meter burned, but this is likely a shared move between all of the Turtles. What makes Donny different is his bo staff attacks, which allow him to pick off enemies from the air.
The leader of the Turtles, Leonardo uses an upwards swing of his swords to launch enemies in the air. Players can also see Leonardo getting help from Raphael, who appears behind Leonardo and launches his signature sais at the opponent. Whether this is exclusive to Leonardo is still unknown.
Raphael’s section shows the Turtle perform a parry attack and a diving kick. And, of course, we get to see the TMNT’s super, which summons all four brothers to attack the opponent.
NetherRealm Studios is hosting another stream on its Twitch channel on Feb. 7 to go over what makes each TMNT character unique and the various playstyles fans will be able to master with them.
As for a release date, the gameplay trailer didn’t reveal when the Turtles will be available to download (outside of February). Be sure to check out the Twitch stream at 4 p.m. EST and they’ll likely give an update as to when they’ll appear for PS4 and Xbox One.
Injustice 2 is available now for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
