Those who like to have a shiny Switch box on their shelves instead of a digital copy are in luck as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge is landing an all-new 'Anniversary Edition' physical copy which will include the recently-released 'Dimension Shellshock' DLC.

The base game received a physical release last year, though this is the first time that the rougelike game mode expansion will be gracing the game cartridges — you can never have too many copies of one game, right?

This Anniversary Edition will be coming to us from Merge Games on 17th November and will cost you £29.99 / €34.99 / $54.95. The company has stated that this new physical will be available from all major retailers and pre-orders are now available from Signature Edition Games.

The Xbox physical release available only from Limited Run Games from what I can tell. The LRG release comes with some extra physical goodies as well.

If you're in NA the standard edition is also coming to retailers later this year.



As for Europe, the info is in the OP, with listings for this new SKU already being up on Amazon UK.

I bought the original Classic edition from LRG and now they are pulling this shit. It’s an overrated beatemup too. Major regret.

How else are they supposed to update non-writable media with the DLC? I suppose they could let you send in your copies for a replacement...

 

[NeverYouMind]

The boxart looks hilarious. At the center you have Dora the Explorer gone ninja and a humanoid Rabbit samurai that nobody remembers. They are decent additions to the roster, but the DLC overall is pretty weak.

Holy shit aggressive puke green cynically concocted nostalgia bait capitalism tactics!!!!! FUCKING SPRITE BRUHS

 

[SEGA_2012]

Terrible box art.
Also, released by LRG

 

[Dream-Knife]

I regret buying the dlc tbh.

 

[Killer8]

LRG takes so fucking long to manufacture and ship their shit that I wouldn't be surprised if people are still waiting for the first release of this.

What's the point of the physical PS5 version??

As far as I know the same resolution and framerate as the ps4 version.

 

[ManaByte]

Fuck LRG

Pure Gen Xploitation. We deserve better.

Probably so people without a ps4 can buy it

...but the PS5 can play PS4 games.

Maybe ps5 owners/parents/grandparents dont know that

Gamepass saved me from buying this game, I'm such a turtles fan I almost got it on Switch anyway. Really glad I didn't, especially now.

Talking about the DLC or the base game? Thought the base game was well regarded.

Nothing wrong with the base game but if I'm buying a physical copy I prefer to make it the complete version. I honestly don't know much about the DLC.

 

[BlackTron]

Ok I'm confused. I thought they were saying this new version with the DLC will be in retailers later this year, but actually they said that's the standard version.

But isn't the standard version already out? What?

You can import a copy from EU if you don't want to give your money to LRG.

“Standard and Classic Editions for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge - Anniversary Edition”

From the OP I believe this post is saying that the standard is everywhere and the classic edition is on the LRG website.

I think both of these are variants of the anniversary edition (which has the DLC).

 

[cireza]

Already own the first one. Good game for sure, but definitely not worth buying a second time.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

I hope this also leads to a GOG version getting released, now that (presumably) all the content's out. Haven't played the base game, but it seems like a decent enough beat-em-up... though I'm not expecting it to supplant the real deal arcade stuff from the '90s.

The standard edition will be a wide general retail release, if the original game is anything to go by.

Oh it is one of the best beat em ups in years, easily as good as a lot of 90s arcade stuff.

Fuck LRG.

Edit: beaten to the punch yet again!

There is one slight advantage to the LRG release.
According to the first post, the Xbox version isn't planned to get physical copies in PAL regions.
