Casey Jones joins the fight in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate
Super Evil Megacorp have announced that on February 5, the puck will fly in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate as Casey Jones joins the fight, alongside the new Junkyard Jam DLC, check out the trailer for it below.
There is a fair bit in the DLC, so rather than just provide the highlights, here are all the details.
CASEY JONES, OFF THE BENCH!
The Turtles can use all the help they can get as they go up against Shredder and try to get their Father back. Thankfully, their friend and fellow vigilante Casey Jones is always ready to pick up his hockey stick and do some damage. What's more, he happens to know a shortcut to the rooftops of NYC! Strangely, their path takes them straight through the Junkyards and Punk Frog turf. Could this have anything to do with Casey’s missing ride?
They are no match for Casey, though– what he lacks in finesse he more than makes up for in raw power. His Slapshot Special Attack is the first ranged attack in the game, taking down punks from afar.
WELCOME TO THE JUNKYARD
After defeating Karai, you will be given a choice to enter the Streets, or try your luck in the Junkyard. The Junkyard brings an all new narrative starring Casey, the Punk Frogs, their mechanic, Gigi, and a special encore surprise for the Turtles.
While a junkyard wouldn’t normally feel like home, the Punk Frogs have settled in and made it their own. The warmth from the blazing barrel fires, the completely non-toxic pools of water, the artistry of Frog graffiti peppering the landscape. What could be better?
Make sure you visit Gigi’s Chop Shop, the Crane Vista, and complete your stay with a lively bop in the Battlebot Arena.
NEW ENEMIES AND CHALLENGING BOSSES
The Punk Frogs continue to test your patience while you make your way through the Junkyard. Attila, leader of the Punk Frogs, has cobbled together repurposed versions of Stockgen robots to wreak all kinds of havoc. Gigi, the vivacious toad mechanic and a threat the Turtles and their friends have never before faced, wields her sawblade with ferocity to make for a challenging mid-run foe. Your ultimate Junkyard challenge will be Genghis’ mech bot, The Junkinator, constructed from parts found both in the Junkyard and elsewhere, and perhaps even some parts familiar to the Turtles family...
NEW WAYS TO PLAY
Earn 5 new Artifacts and explore using Casey’s inspirations, masteries, and tools across your runs with other characters! Artifacts include some helpful additions for co-operative group play, as well as new ways to control the battlefield. Casey’s suite of powers help him excel with his Special ability, Guard Break, and many more surprises.
