Palladium Books announced that their original TMNT RPG, originally published in 1985, is coming back – on Kickstarter.

The heroes on the half shell are back in a big way. Late last week, Palladium Books announced that it would be republishing the classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles RPG, which has been long out of print. Working with Paramount, Palladium will be launching a TMNT RPG Kickstarter featuring full-color hardcover books with new artwork.

But classic turtles. According to the announcement, featured below, the new covers will be designed by co-creators of the Ninja Turtles, Kevin Eastman. Alongside this, plenty of Kickstarter exclusives. Check out the announcement!

TMNT RPG Returns On Kickstarter

The beloved, out-of-print Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles role-playing game and its sourcebooks are sought-after collector items that have enthralled generations since its release in 1985 as one of the first licensed TMNT products. They are returning to print as two deluxe hardcover collections of the RPG and sourcebooks. Each is being completely remastered by industry veteran Sean Owen Roberson and presented in full color, and Kevin Eastman, co-creator of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, will also provide a new painted cover.

Bonus material includes an array of new artwork, never before seen behind-the-scenes info and art, plus remembrances and tributes by renowned comic book and RPG creators including Eastman, Peter Laird, Freddie E. Williams II, Steven Cummings, Sophie Campbell, David Petersen and many more.

The Kickstarter campaign, launching October 31, 2023, will offer a host of mind-blowing Kickstarter exclusives: TMNT miniatures based on the role-playing game, dice sets, variant book covers, art prints by legacy TMNT creatives, a card deck, and more, including special stretch goals to entice role-playing fans and TMNT fans alike. All products ship in 2024. To be among the first to hear about the entire exciting slate of releases, creators, exclusives and stretch goals to be unlocked with your support, be sure to go to the Kickstarter page and subscribe for updates.
