The 11 Best 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Video Games

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment

In 1983, comic book authors Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman created one of the biggest entertainment empires of all time. And it all centered around a group of four humanoid turtles that kicked a whole lotta shell and ate a whole lotta pizza.

That group is known as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - the charismatic foursome of Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo make up the core of that unforgettable unit. And ever since they debuted in comic book form, they’ve gone on to become household names thanks to a successful line of action figures, cartoons, apparel, and so much more. The monumental impact those turtles have left on their massive fanbase will be felt for generations to come as they capture the imagination of those fans’ offspring thanks to their continued presence. And as long as video games continue to capture everyone’s attention, gamers will flock to any interactive experience that features those beloved “turtles in a half-shell.”
