The Super Bowl trailer opens with Leonardo, Donatello, Michaelangelo, and Raphael, with the latter asking what the most important traits of the ninja are.

The scene was followed by a sequence featuring Megan Fox's April O'Neil as she walks and Brian Tee's Shredder as he shows off his blades, shocking his company. Fans also get to see two masked characters brawling and one of them is Stephen Amell's Casey Jones with his hockey stick and puck.

Then, the next sequence shows a structure presumably coming from another dimension, which is followed by a scene with the four ninja turtles up against a cyborg creature. Michaelangelo knocks on the glass part of the cyborg suit until a pink creature with a purple-irised eye reveals himself, shocking Michaelangelo in fear. The sequence develops to the mutant turtles in combat with their old foe.

The rhinoceros named Rocksteady, played by Stephen Farrelly, is also featured in the Super Bowl trailer. Behind him is Bebop the pig, played by Gary Anthony Williams, and is riding on a tricycle. Rocksteady looks very furious that he appears ready to destroy everything while running towards a man, who looks unaware that he is coming.
