On August 8, the worlds of Street Fighter 6 and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will collide as TMNT gear, emotes, titles, stamps, and costumes that will turn you into your favorite turtle will be available in Street Fighter 6.
The news was announced at EVO 2023 with a short teaser that showed all the turtle goodness headed to the latest entry in Capcom’s iconic fighting franchise. While Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo won’t be full DLC characters like there were in Injustice 2, there looks to be a lot of fan service built into this collaboration.

The teaser for the Street Fighter 6 x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover began by showing a TMNT-themed storefront being added to the Battle Hub. We then see the costumes of each turtles on display, and they really do make your character feel like one of them.
To help sell the effect, there will also be emotes to make them act more like the TMNT, including one that has them scarfing down some delicious pizza. There will also be in-game device wallpapers, camera frames in Photo Mode, avatar images based on the turtles, TMNT-themed accessories that will make you look like the turtles without committing to a full costume, and more.
This news follows the arrival of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem in theaters and the news that the original 1987 TMNT series will soon arrive on Nickelodeon, which means it’s a great time to be a fan of these shelled heroes.
