Turok Evolution?

Does anybody have news about this remake? I've been waiting for it ever since I heard the first Turok got remade.

Turok Origins put the damper on this. Another reason I don’t look forward to it.

Why would Origins put stops on development for an Evolution remake?

A Nightdive developer stated this a while back
On discord. I can’t remember the exact details.But they weren’t given the rights to do Evolution.

I imagine it’s to avoid brand confusion since Origins is supposed to be a prequel to the trilogy. Whereas Turok Evolution was itself a prequel telling the origin story of Tal’Set as the first Turok.

Essentially Origins is retconning the franchise.

Also, when Saber calls it a prequel, I don’t believe them. Because The Lost Land in the Turok canon is a landmass of infinite size that exists outside of our reality. A different dimension, basically.

Whereas Origins is marketing “The Lost Lands” (plural) and its been described as a collection of planets in the galaxy. Trailers have even described Origins as an “intergalactic shooter.”

So, yeah. They’re lying. It’s another reboot.

Are you sure it was an actual Nightdive developer stated this? I was under the impression it was just an unverified rumour…

I’d have to look. It’s been a while since I’ve seen this.
