Turok Listed For Nintendo Switch Release On Nintendo eShop

Remember Turok? Sure you do. The dinosaur hunting shooter originally came out on the Nintendo 64, and ended up spawning a franchise. Turok, the original game, eventually came to the Xbox One a few years ago. And now, it might be returning home to Nintendo, because it seems as though Turok has been listed for a Nintendo Switch release on the Nintendo eShop.

This appears to be the same remaster of the N64 game that came to the Xbox One some years ago. It will allegedly launch later this month (specifically, March 18), and cost $20 USD/$25 CAD.

It’s extremely interesting that this game is coming to the Switch—why, exactly? Maybe the publishers are banking on some nostalgia from former N64, and currently Switch, owners. I have to imagine that will end up pushing some sales, at the very least. Hopefully enough that the far superior Turok 2 also launches on the Switch some time soon…
