Hardcore Gamer says, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge caters to a specific niche audience, but couldn’t have done a better job of it.”

While most critics adored the game’s soundtrack, controls, roster, design, and the all-new multiplayer, some pointed out the lack of creativity. “This heartfelt, engaging reprise of a classic falls just shy of greatness due to a lack of fresh ideas and endurance.” PC Gamer says.
