San Francisco, CA (March 6, 2007) - Today Ubisoft announced that it is
releasing the 1989 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game on Xbox Live Arcade
for the Xbox 360.
From Ubisoft:
The Classic Arcade game, originally
published by Konami and most recently developed for Xbox LIVE Arcade by Digital
Eclipse, a division of Foundation 9 Entertainment, will be available on Xbox
LIVE Arcade – the premier destination for digitally distributed, high

The TMNT arcade game brings the nostalgia of the early coin-op arcade days of
gaming into the comfort of the living room through the power of Xbox LIVE® and
Xbox LIVE Arcade. The game will feature the original seven levels, two- to
four-player co-op modes and voice- chat capabilities and be available for

"The release of the TMNT classic arcade game on Xbox LIVE Arcade is Ubisoft's
homage to a world-renowned franchise that for almost 20 years has captured the
hearts of gamers,” said James Regan, director of new business development at
Ubisoft. "Ubisoft is breathing new life into the video game franchise with the
launch of our downloadable console games while remaining true to the unique
core values that make the Turtles so timeless.”
