There are many games that you can play on your PC or console as of this month. One of the titles you’ll find on the list is 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan', an action hack and slash video game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Activision.

If you’re eager to play the game, you’ll have to wait until May 24, because that’s when the game is scheduled to be released. Since that’s more than a week away, here’s something you can do in the meanwhile: check out each Turtle’s unique fighting style.

Leonardo, the team leader

Leonardo is the team leader, and his drive for perfection is unmatched. His brand of ninjutsu gives him the ability to slow down time, allowing him to execute lightning-fast strikes with pin-point precision. And when he teams up with another Turtle for a whirlwind attack, their enemies don’t stand a chance.




Donatello, the tech guru

Donatello is the team’s resident tech guru, spending his down time inventing gadgets and keeping the vehicles running. During battle, he’s always quick to toss a handful of pizza slices into the air when his brother’s need health. And when he joins forces with a teammate, the two dismantle the enemy defenses with a barrage of teleportation attacks.




Michelangelo, the jokester

Michelangelo is always good for a laugh, but don’t underestimate his skills. He’s not afraid to grab a pair of pompoms and choreograph a miniature pep rally when his teammates’ special abilities need refreshing. And his disco dancing mesmerizes foes into cutting a rug of their own, forcing enemies to drop their defenses and giving the Turtles a chance to attack.




Raphael, the strong silent type

Raphael may be the strong silent type, but he never backs down from a good brawl. He’s the master of stealth and can make himself invisible to enemies until he’s ready to unleash a devastating surprise attack. And when he partners with one of his Turtle teammates, the two create a shell-slamming shockwave that knocks the Foot clan off their feet.




What is this game about?

It is a gritty, comic-inspired, visually stunning, and fast-paced combat game that asks you to fight in the sewers, subways and streets of NYC to take down Shredder and Krang's evil organization. Overwhelming dark forces are growing in the shadows and its up to you to defeat them and save Manhattan.
