Developed for the PlayStation® 2 computer entertainment system, the Xbox® video game system from Microsoft, Nintendo GameCube™, Nintendo Game Boy® Advance and PC CD-ROM, TMNT 2 features an-all new experience in the form of four-player cooperative play - a trademark of the legendary arcade games and a first for the next-generation franchise.

Featuring a non-linear story structure requiring more skill based play, TMNT 2 is guaranteed to offer gamers a varied and exciting gameplay experience. Complete with voice-overs from the popular TMNT animated TV series on the FoxBox, TMNT 2 allows gamers to play as Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael, each with distinct characteristics and abilities. Players will need to kick, punch and slice their way past Foot Ninjas and the turtles' archenemy, The Shredder, in two exciting game modes - Story and Battle Nexus. The four-player cooperative Story Mode is based on the FoxBox's TMNT Season 2, with individual player's performance and selection affecting the story line. The Battle Nexus Mode offers slick head-to-head action. Additionally, as an added bonus for older, more nostalgic fans, the console versions provide the ability to unlock one of the classic TMNT arcade-games.
Meanwhile, the Game Boy Advance version features a total of 60 stages, including the main story mode which has total of 30 stages, as well as 15 battle stages and 15 ride courses. By completing all the Race Modes in each stage, players can earn bonus points to unlock special items.
