Super Evil Megacorp has released a new free update for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate titled “Shell Squad Co-Op.” In addition, a new premium DLC has launched which adds a trench coat cosmetic for all characters.
The Steam page outlines the update:
Sharing is caring! Whether you’re running local couch co-op or matching up with internet friends or strangers, every co-op session now unlocks exclusive, co-op-specific powers and tools. These are designed to enhance teamwork and collaboration, sometimes on the fly! Here is a list of all the additions in this big update:
-
- 24x new co-op powers (3 per power tree). Examples:
- Passing the Torch – The first player you touch while affected by Rapid Fire also gains its effects, for as long as you have Rapid Fire active.
- Shared Warmth – When a player consumes a Splinter’s Revive, heal all players.
- Chain Reaction – Players’ Specials have a chance to trigger a Chain Lightning, dealing Utrom damage per link.
-
- 8x new co-op tools (1 per power tree). Examples:
- Bubble Trouble – Spawn a bubble on you and the farthest player. The bubble deals Water damage and applies frost to enemies, and grants bonus Water damage to players.
- Tether Beam – Tether to the closest player. Enemies caught in the beam will take Utrom damage every second.
- Shadow Pact – Grant yourself and the closest player a Dark Shell. Each enemy defeated extends it.
-
- 8x new co-op masteries (1 per character). Examples:
- Donatello – When using your Tool, the closest player becomes invulnerable.
- Raphael – When any player lands a critical hit, they have a chance to Multi-crit instead.
- Michelangelo – When using your Special, you and the closest player gain a Torrent Strike stack.
- Leonardo – When activating your Special, the closest player gains Light Shell.
