Remember the good old days of Turok? You know, the turn of the millennium and all that? Well, it’s time to relive them as Nightdive Studios faithfully restore Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion. 

Available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and PC is Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion. This should be seen as the final chapter in the recently remastered Turok Trilogy following on from previous drops of the original Turok and Turok 2

A faithful remastering

A game that first released on Nintendo 64 back in 2000, Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion has now been upgraded and updated. It does so by making the most of Nightdive Studio‘s KEX Engine, bringing 4K visuals at 120FPS. You’ll also find upgraded gameplay, high-res textures, enhanced lighting and rendering. Oh, and there’s platform specific support for console controllers too. Wahey!

In Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion you get the chance to choose between dual protagonists Joseph and Danielle Fireseed, the siblings of Turok 2: Seeds of Evil protagonist Joshua Fireseed. Together, they must defeat the titular antagonist Oblivion and its followers, the Flesh Eaters, after the supposed demise of their brother at its hands.

Features of the remaster include

  • The Hunt Begins Again: A remastered version of the 2000 classic, available for the first time since its Nintendo 64 release — with advanced rendering features, including anti-aliasing, bloom, ambient occlusion, dynamic shadows, and motion blur.
  • Oblivion Wept: Improved visual fidelity, modern graphical techniques, and highly upgraded performance for up to 4K 120FPS on PC, PlayStation® 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
  • Skin and Bones: Remastered environment art faithfully recreated from original Turok 3 developer Iguana Entertainment’s asset library, plus updated character and weapon models and animations.
  • Savor the Hunt: Celebrate your victories with unlockable Trophies and Achievements on Steam, PlayStation®, and Xbox.
  • Fate is in Your Hands: Feel the thrill of the kill with optional support for motion/gyro controls for Nintendo Switch and Gamepad Rumble.
