Starting today, players will have the chance to unlock and play new versions of familiar WWE Superstars, but with new moves and appearances! Superstar characters include Rey Mysterio as Raphael, Seth Rollins as Leonardo, Kofi Kingston as Michelangelo, and Xavier Woods as Donatello.
“WWE and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are two of the most iconic brands in pop culture and this mashup is one we know our fans are going to absolutely love,” said Zoe Chen, General Manager for “WWE Champions” at Scopely. “It’s been great working with our partners at Paramount and Mattel to bring digital versions of these amazing Action Figures to ‘WWE Champions’ and create the ultimate fantasy matchups we’ve never seen in a WWE ring.”
Each new TMNT Superstar brings not only a unique appearance, but a few new moves to “WWE Champions,” the beloved and challenging puzzle RPG experience available on mobile and Web. All four characters can be acquired through loot rewards and playing through various modes and events now available in-game.
