Turok's Epic Comeback: Co-Op Dinosaur Adventure Awaits

Saber Interactive has officially announced Turok: Origins, a new iteration of the beloved dinosaur-hunting series that first launched in 1997. This game marks a significant departure from the franchise's traditional first-person shooter mechanics, embracing a third-person action perspective. Turok: Origins will feature co-op gameplay, allowing up to three players to join the main campaign as they explore semi-open environments across various connected planets. The titular hero dons a cutting-edge "biomorphic suit" that grants unique powers, including summoning lightning and confronting epic bosses, all powered by Unreal Engine 5. Turok: Origins is currently in development for Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PS5, though no release date has been provided yet.

Players can expect a shift from first-person shooting to third-person action gameplay, along with the integration of co-op multiplayer in the main campaign, and the introduction of a new combat system centered around the protagonist’s biomorphic suit and its unique powers.

Turok began its journey on the Nintendo 64, featuring a character who battles prehistoric creatures in sprawling, lush environments. The franchise has undergone several transformations since its original release, including remasters of classic titles. Turok: Origins looks to revitalize interest in this iconic series while introducing new gameplay elements that resonate with modern audiences.
