The third and final remastered release of the original Turok trilogy is now available. Featuring some modern refinements to the gameplay, visuals, and more, Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PC.
Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion is a remastering of the classic FPS that was initially released in the far off time of the year 2000. Originally out on the Nintendo 64, today's release comes courtesy of Nightdive Studios and their proprietary KEX Engine.
This release is the first game to be built on Nightdive's newest version of the KEX Engine. This update is said to utilize "an improved renderer to achieve a higher tier of visual fidelity across 3D models, textures, and graphical artifacts." However, just like the previous remasters from Nightdive, this release also features support for 4K resolution, 120FPS, anti-aliasing support, ambient occlusion, bloom, dynamic shadows, motion blur, and widescreen support.
Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion is $29.99 (USD) on its own. You can also pick up the entire remastered Turok trilogy in a bundle for $59.99 across all platforms.
In Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion, players choose between dual protagonists Joseph and Danielle Fireseed, 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.
