One of the most joyous surprises to come out of the joyous surprise known as Streets of Rage 4 was the eventual DLC. The fourth Streets game was already near perfect with its cast of characters, graphics, music, and crunchy action. However, publisher Dotemu eventually released the excellent Mr. X Nightmare, bringing even more characters and a new mode. With the publisher’s upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, the question to ask now is: “Will there be more after it’s launched?” Well, no, but certainly not never. Dotemu has stated that while it has no plans for TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge DLC, that depends on the “game’s reception.”

In a report by IGN, the game’s narrative designer took some time to chat Turtles. Yannick Belzil, in an episode of Xbox Expansion Pass, said that developer Tribute Games wasn’t going to do anything like release alternate costumes for the characters. Belzil mentions a flowing trench coat as example, something that the turtles used to disguise themselves in the ’80s series. Creating new animation for the costume would take extra time better spent to make a great game. It was assumed that DLC would be off the table for TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge, but not necessarily according to Dotemu.

In a Twitter reply, Dotemu’s CEO Cyrille Imbert offered a clarification. He said there “won’t be alternative costumes at launch and we don’t have DLC plans so far, but we never said ‘never.'” Continuing, Imbert explains that plans could change depending on community ideas and feedback, as well as the game’s reception.
