"Turok knows a thing or two about rebirth. The original character debuted in a 1950s comic book but came to wider attention after Valiant Comics revived him as Turok: Dinosaur Hunter in the early '90s. It was this comic that became the basis for the game series that began on the N64, which was arguably the most influential console-based shooter of the time after GoldenEye."
"I was admittedly skeptical when it was first announced at last year's Game Awards, as it seemed to be a third-person co-op shooter. The good news from my first hands-on at Gamescom 2025 is that the game can be played in both first- and third-person, and members of Saber Interactive's Madrid-based team assured us that it will also be possible to play the game solo without AI allies, so as to stay true to the original single-player experience of the series."
The Turok franchise returns with Turok: Origins after a 17-year dormancy following a mixed 2008 reboot and a canceled sequel. The game supports both first- and third-person perspectives and allows cooperative PvE for up to three players as well as solo play without AI allies. The reboot serves as a prequel, reinterpreting Turok as a tribe of hunters inspired by North American indigenous cultures. Players choose from spirit-animal-based classes—Raven, Cougar, Bison—each defining loadouts and abilities with the freedom to change classes before missions. The core gameplay emphasizes large weapons and dinosaur combat.
