Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City

Played it with some bro's and we had a shell of a time! Sure the game is a bit repetetative and one could wish for a more interactive world. But it looks ans feels amazing! The climbing machanic is awesome, traversing the city as a (probably the best looking) ninja turtle is a pretty sweet high. The story was pretty good and the characters looks amazing. Loved the experience and would love if the game continued to evolve and get more content. Feels like a game made by fans.

As a lifelong Ninja Turtles fan, I wanted to give this a completely upfront look to see if it delivers on that childhood nostalgia. It’s a highly entertaining, fast-paced VR playground, but it has a few quirks to know before buying. What Hits the Mark: The 4 Brothers: You can play as any turtle, and their weapons handle completely differently. Leonardo is the most responsive and intuitive, while Mikey’s nunchucks are fun but harder to block with. Solid Co-op: The 4-player crossplay (Steam/Meta) is seamless. No major network lag or rubber banding during chaotic combat. Boss Fights: Genuinely challenging and entertaining. They actually force you to utilize your parries and dashes instead of just swinging wildly. What Misses: Empty Environments: The surface streets can feel barren. While there's a story reason for it, some ambient NYC citizens would have helped the immersion. Disorienting Speed: Rooftop parkour is fast and fun, but it gets disorienting quickly in tight indoor maps like the warehouse. Quick Tip: Dying in the open world has almost zero penalty—you respawn close by and enemies stay dead. Save your salvaged materials for permanent upgrades instead of temporary health packs. If you have a VR setup and love the franchise, it’s well worth checking out and has earned a permanent spot on my hard drive. 🎬 For my full, detailed video review covering the mechanics, weapon physics, and performance, check it out here: https://youtu.be/SDKUMvDxqcw

HELLS YES. This is everything you ever wanted from a Turtles title. SOLID script. PERFECTLY VOICED. DIFFICULT choice about which turtle to be (when all of them are fun?) AND it's in VR. AND it has thumbstick movement that didn't make sick. I'm legit shocked how much I loved my time with Empire City, I bounced hard from Batman on Quest from stomach concerns, but with Empire City? NO issue. 10/10 best.

It's just not a fun game. If you like TMNT, you are going to have some initial excitement discovering the characters, the enemies, and the turtle lair. There are a few cool easter eggs and interactions that will make an TMNT fan smile. However, within the first few missions, you will quickly notice the poor game design, repetitive tasks and enemy interactions, poor AI, and the lifelessness that is the Empire City. It's a cool concept but it feels like a low effort VR game or an early concept from the early 2020s. It's 2026 and TMNT deserves a little better, IMO.

I bought the game for the co-op, launched it, but co-op doesn't work. We're very disappointed.

Steam版の販売予定はなかった気が…いきなりストアに現れたので驚きました。 価格がQuestとSteamで1000円程違うので迷わずSteam版を購入。 VivePRO+indexにてプレイしましたが、字幕は読みづらいし掴み動作が不安定すぎてプレイに支障を感じたのでQuest3+Virtual Desktopで再プレイ。 Quest用に製作されているだけあって字幕は読みやすいし、掴み動作もスムーズに動作しました。 ・ゲーム概要 ゲームはタートルズ4体から選択してストーリーを進めていく。 最初のチュートリアルで4体の違いを体験できるようになっているので、気に入ったタートルズでプレイできる。 メインストーリー中であれば拠点でいつでも別のタートルズへ変更可能。 クエストは拠点にいるサポートから無線でマップ上に表示される場所へ移動、対処していく。 サブクエストもあるがすぐに終わるし、同じことの繰り返しでやや退屈。 クエスト中に手に入る「スクラップ」は収集して拠点の持ち帰るとアイテムやキャラクターのアップグレード（レベルアップ）に使用できる。 レベルは上昇するとアイテムスロット拡張や体力が増加する。 ・戦闘について Questのバットマンのような戦闘を期待していたが、武器を振り回すだけの単純なスタイル。 パリィは成功すると相手はスタンするので雑魚はパリィ狙い。 スニークも可能で背後から忍び寄って攻撃すれば一撃で倒せる。 が、実は武器投げがこのゲームは可能なので無警戒の敵であれば武器投げ一撃で倒せる。 武器投げはまっすぐ飛ぶ上に自動で武器が戻ってくるので積極的に狙う。 ・まとめ プレイスタイルは立位でも座位でも可能。 オプションにそれ用の設定はないのでスタート時に判定しているようです。 ゲームとして現時点の評価ですがちょっと微妙な感じ…バットマンが80点ぐらいだとすると本作は60点ぐらい。 マップは広いけどやることはあまりないし、サブクエストは同じことの繰り返し。 戦闘も楽しいと思える部分が無く、爽快感もない。 タートルズファン向けに作られた感じは結構あるのでファンであれば楽しめる？。 小物とかは結構拘りを感じますが、ゲームとして楽しいと思える部分が薄いと感じます。

This has been a blast to play it really gives you that feel of the old arcade beat'em ups just in first person. I have been playing Mikey to start and he seems to be the character to flail your arms about and win fights which is freaking funny as all get out. I cant wait to play through the game with the other turtles as Dony seems like he might have the most controlled fight pattern along with easier blocking. The story seems great so far and the voice acting is just amazing. I can understand some of the complaints about how the world seems to empty even for new york but the story does kinda say why so it doesnt bug me that much that I dont have to hide from civilians or even rescue some. I do recommend this its fun and excatly what i was hoping for in a TMNT game.

Crashes every few minutes while playing with a Quest 3 wired connection. Game window freezes and artifacts appear all around. I was liking the game when I was able to play it, but until it's fixed (if it ever is for me) I can't play it, so I have to rate it accordingly.
