Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion is the final installment of the Turok trilogy, a series of first-person shooters that started in 1997 with Turok: Dinosaur Hunter. The game was originally released for the Nintendo 64 in 2000, and has recently been remastered by Nightdive Studios for modern platforms, including the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S1. The remastered version features upgraded graphics, performance, and gameplay, as well as new achievements and support for gamepads and motion controls2.
The game picks up right after the events of Turok 2: Seeds of Evil, where the hero Joshua Fireseed destroyed the Primagen’s Lightship, a device that threatened to unleash an ancient evil known as Oblivion upon the universe. However, the explosion also caused a rift in the fabric of reality, allowing Oblivion and its minions, the Flesh Eaters, to invade the Lost Lands, a mysterious world where time has no meaning and dinosaurs roam freely. Joshua sacrifices himself to seal the rift, but not before passing on the mantle of Turok, the protector of the Lost Lands, to his siblings, Danielle and Joseph3.
The game allows the player to choose between Danielle and Joseph as the playable character, each with their own abilities, weapons, and storylines. Danielle is a skilled fighter who can jump higher and wield powerful weapons, such as the rocket launcher, the plasma rifle, and the dark matter cube. Joseph is a stealthy hacker who can crawl into small spaces and use gadgets, such as the sniper rifle, the night vision goggles, and the hacking device. The game features eight main levels, each with different objectives, enemies, and secrets. The game also has a multiplayer mode, where up to four players can compete in various modes, such as deathmatch, capture the flag, and monkey tag, in 42 different maps3.
The game is a fitting conclusion to the Turok saga, as it delivers a thrilling and satisfying gameplay experience, with a variety of weapons, enemies, and environments. The game also has a rich and immersive story, with cinematic cutscenes, voice acting, and multiple endings. The game’s graphics and sound are also impressive, especially in the remastered version, which enhances the game’s visuals and audio to a new level of quality. The game’s difficulty is well-balanced, offering a fair challenge to both newcomers and veterans of the series. The game’s replay value is also high, as the game has multiple paths, secrets, and collectibles to discover, as well as a multiplayer mode that can provide hours of fun.
Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion is a game that deserves to be played by fans of the Turok series, as well as fans of first-person shooters in general. The game is a testament to the legacy of the Turok franchise, which has been one of the pioneers of the genre, and one of the most influential games of its time.
