The publisher who originally held the rights to the prehistoric hero, Acclaim, went into liquidation back in 2004. Since then, the dinosaur hunter has been left unemployed, though it now looks like a return will be on the cards sooner rather than later, with BVG assuring us they'll be 'redefining Turok videogames'. Blimey.
'It's our goal to capture the essence of Turok and the rich, prehistoric creatures and environments, and leverage new technology and game play mechanics to create the Turok game we've only dreamed about,' said studio head Josh Holmes, possibly the only man PALGN has encountered to dream about building the perfect Turok game. 'It is exciting for everyone at the studio to be a part of building a franchise for the next generation of Turok titles,' continues Monsieur Holmes, 'as we all grew up reading the comic books and playing the first games.' Well, probably just the first actually, Josh.
Alas, we're currently still waiting on game details, screenshots and a release date (though we can confirm the new title is being developed by Propaganda Games, BVG's recently established Vancouver studio, for unspecified next-gen consoles), but as soon as we do find out, rest assured you'll be the first to know.
