The Cowabunga Collection adds save states, rewind functions, button mapping, as well as online capabilities in certain games and local co-op in all games where it was originally intended.[2] It also features an in-game museum that offers previously unseen development art, sketches and game design material for the titles.[3] Almost every game includes both the Western and Japanese versions, with the exceptions being the arcade version of Turtles in Time and the NES version of Tournament Fighters, which did not have Japanese versions.[4]
The compilation was developed by Digital Eclipse, who had previously worked on other retro collections, such as The Disney Afternoon Collection and Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection.[4]
The Cowabunga Collection was announced as part of the PlayStation State of Play event on March 9, 2022.[5] The game was also featured at San Diego Comic-Con 2022. It was released for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S on August 30, 2022.[6][7] A limited edition physical version of the game was also released, containing a cloth poster, an acrylic diorama, an enamel pin set, 12 Tournament Fighters cards, and a 180-page artbook. The box art and cloth poster were designed by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman.[8][9]
