Turok is an epic, story-driven first person shooter game set on a dark, mysterious planet in the near future. Players take on the role of Joseph Turok, a former Black Ops commando, now part of an elite Special Forces squad on a mission to take down a war criminal on a genetically-altered planet. After the ship is shot down while approaching the planet, Joseph Turok must use his instincts and elite military training to elude an army of well-trained soldiers, and the ravenous, unpredictable creatures that populate the dangerous environment. Joseph Turok's mission? Survive at all costs.
What seemed at first to be a simple mission has turned into a deadly game of survival. You are Joseph Turok, an ex-member of Wolf Pack, the most savage, merciless black ops squad of its time. Now you have been given a special order from Whiskey Company, an elite commando team, to capture and detain Roland Kane from his fortress on a worthless, backwater planet. Kane is an escaped war criminal, the once-legendary leader of Wolf Pack...and your former mentor. But Kane is in command of a secret paramilitary force funded by the Mendel-Gruman (M-G) Corporation. When your ship approaches the planet, you are blasted out of the sky by Kane's troops. Now you are stranded in a dangerous world. Vicious prehistoric beasts of all shapes and sizes roam the terrain, attacking anything that moves. Your teammates are either killed or scattered. Ruthless M-G forces are hunting the ones who are not dead. You have no weapons. How will you survive?
