Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City is officially coming to Quest, PC VR headsets, and Pico headsets on April 30th.<\/p>\n

Developed by Cortopia Studios and Beyond Frames Entertainment, TMNT: Empire City\u00a0is serving up a co-op supported campaign, letting you team up with up to three other tubular turtles as you battle against the dreaded Foot Clan.<\/p>\n

Set after the fall of series\u2019 antagonist Shredder, Foot Clan leader Karai looks to fill the power vacuum, coming from her native Japan to bring order to the chaos in the New York chapter of the Clan.<\/p>\n

Ace St. Germain, Beyond Frames Entertainment CEO and Creative Director of Empire City at Cortopia Studios, calls Karai\u2019s approach to leadership \u201cvery different\u201d from Shedder\u2019s though.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow she decides to lead is ultimately up to the players\u2019 relationship with this world,\u201d St. Germain says.<\/p>\n

If you didn\u2019t get a chance to play the public PC VR demo during Steam Next Fest last month, check out our hands-on with TMNT: Empire City<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The short of it: the studio seems to have\u00a0absolutely nailed\u00a0the Turtles aesthetic and vibe, offering up seemingly a cel shaded universe ripped straight from the comic books.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m looking forward to sussing out the game\u2019s combat more than the 15-minute demo allowed, which will undoubtedly be a major component to this narrative-based VR beat \u2019em up.<\/p>\n

What I can say though is it looked promising, as much of the melee action I saw seemed to be pretty tactical, requiring users to strike, parry, block and retreat from unblockable blows.<\/p>\n

Ahead of its April 30th launch, fans can pre-order Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City on the\u00a0Horizon Store\u00a0<\/a>for Quest 3\u00a0with a 20% discount off its regular $25 price, bringing it to $20.
