Trivia[]
- The inclusion of the Ninja Turtles was built on influence from the Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic series, published by IDW Publishing and DC Comics, and alongside the tradition of NetherRealm Studios including third-party characters from different franchises as their guest fighters, akin to the Mortal Kombat series since it's 2011 reboot.
- This marks officially the first time in a DC property that the Ninja Turtles interact with characters outside of Batman and his rogues gallery.
- In addition, this marks the first time the Ninja Turtles interact with characters from Mortal Kombat, and Hellboy proper.
- Both the Turtles and Hellboy made cameo appearances in Savage Dragon #41 together before.
- In addition, this marks the first time the Ninja Turtles interact with characters from Mortal Kombat, and Hellboy proper.
- Ironically, during the release of Mortal Kombat X from 2015, many fans would jokingly state who they'd like to see as future DLC fighters within the game's Kombat Packs. The Ninja Turtles, along with many characters and real people that have no real connection to fighting games, would often be a, jokingly and/or sarcastically, predicted DLC fighter. Two years later, the Turtles would later be included it Injustice 2.
- The Turtles are the first guest characters to hail from a Nickelodeon franchise.
