The Shredder appears as the final boss at the end of the Technodrome level. He wears a red costume similar to his Mirage Comics counterpart and fights using the Life Transformer Gun, which de-mutates and instantly kills the Turtle that the player controls. He also takes away roughly half of the player's health if he is touched. After he is defeated, the Shredder turns into a pile of ash and the Retromutagen Ray Generator is used to turn Splinter back into Hamato Yoshi.
