The DLC’s main addition is the new playable character Usagi Yojimbo, which ought to excite old-school TMNT fans.

Given the inter-dimensional theme of the DLC, could we see more crossover characters? While you mull that over, here’s a bit more info on Usagi Yojimbo…
“Dimension Shellshock brings a new playable fighter in the razor-sharp Usagi Yojimbo, star of the self-titled comic book series and a fan-favorite ally to the Turtles seen in previous cameos across the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series and action figure releases. The steely rabbit samurai unsheathes his blade in new gameplay today.”
In addition to new characters, Dimension Shellshock will offer a new game mode, alternate skins and color schemes, and some fresh tunes. Haven’t been keeping up with TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge? Wccftech’s Ule Lopez found the game to be an excellent retro beat ‘em up in his full review…
