The dinosaurs are back, and this time, they’re going portable. During the latest Nintendo Direct, Saber Interactive thrilled fans by revealing that Turok: Origins is officially coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. This new evolution of the iconic sci-fi franchise, which was previously announced for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, is now confirmed for a global multi-platform release in Fall 2026.
A New Era for the Order of the Turok
In this reimagining of the legendary series, players step into the mantle of the ancient Order of the Turok. As heroic guardians endowed with unimaginable power, you are the last line of defense against an encroaching alien threat and a world overrun by prehistoric predators. The stakes are higher than ever, with a narrative that spans the "treacherously beautiful" Lost Lands across a range of alien planets.
Evolve to Survive
Turok: Origins promises to blend high-octane action with deep RPG elements. Whether playing solo or in co-op with friends, players can switch between first-person and third-person perspectives to suit their playstyle.
The game’s standout mechanic involves DNA extraction. By harvesting genetic material from fallen foes and the environment, players can "evolve their mantle" and unlock EchoSyncs—powerful abilities that grant a tactical edge in combat. This DNA system also fuels a robust upgrade path for a massive arsenal that includes classic bows, plasma rifles, ray guns, and heavy-duty shotguns.
Key Features at a Glance:
Epic World Building: Explore diverse biomes, from ancient temples and wasteland canyons to dense, predator-filled jungles.
Challenging Combat: Face off against ground, sky, and swamp-dwelling bosses that push your reflexes to the limit.
Advanced Weaponry: A wide variety of long-range and melee options designed for maximum devastation.
With the addition of the Nintendo Switch 2 to the lineup, Saber Interactive is ensuring that the hunt for survival can happen anywhere. Fans can wishlist the game now across all major platforms.
