TMNT Mod Transforms Ninja Gaiden II Black into a Gritty Ninja Turtles Battlefield
A group of players are creating a TMNT mod for Ninja Gaiden II Black, adding the heroes in a half shell to an already intense action experience. Ninja Gaiden II Black offers a range of playstyles for weapons like the Dragon Sword, twin katanas, scythes, and claws. The game compels aggressive combat with its gory finishers and dismemberment effects, making it a fitting title for modding on sites like Infinity Lab Studios. (Official information on the Ninja Gaiden series can be found on Team Ninja’s website.) Voyagers Revenge recently unveiled their TMNT mod for Ninja Gaiden II Black. Ryu Hayabusa is replaced by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who engage in the game’s existing graphic violence. The mod, which features meticulously recreated New York environments, draws inspiration from the darker tone of early TMNT comics. The impressive visuals have led many to dream of a full TMNT game developed by Team Ninja—an aspiration that, for now, may best be fulfilled through mods like this one.
