Turok & Turok 2 Remasters Coming to Xbox One, Possibly PS4
Get ready for the return of dinosaurs, headbands, and laser guns.
One video game hero that has fallen into the abyss in recent years is that of Turok, the original dinosaur hunter.
The last release in the franchise, 2008’s simple titled reboot Turok, had some decent moments but left quite a bit to be desired; so it was inevitable that fans would long for the nostalgia of 1997’s original Turok and Turok 2: Seeds of Evil. Well, now you can take your rose tinted glasses off and see the prehistoric polygonal adventures for yourself, because the original games are being remastered.
Night Dive Studios, which specialises in bringing back seemingly forgotten video games, revealed plans to bring Turok and Turok 2 to Xbox One.
