Nintendo has announced that glorious 90s shooter Turok: Dinosaur Hunter is coming to the Switch.

Turok was originally released for the Nintendo 64 back in 1997, and next to GoldenEye, was one of the best shooters for the cartridge-based system. I played the hell out of the game back in the 90s, although I wasn't really any good at it. Maybe it was due to all that mist that covered up the environments. Oh well.

Anyway, Turok will be sinking its teeth into Nintendo Switch on March 18. Turok 2 is also scheduled to hit the Big N's hybrid console, but there's no release date for that just yet.

Both games were previously ported to the Xbox One in March last year, courtesy of Nightdive Studios.
