Online multiplayer support is also available. The knife is also utilized as a self-defense weapon during phases known as "mauls", where the player is attacked by a dinosaur or bug, and must hammer on the according buttons in order to counter-attack or fend off the attack. The kill can be utilized against dinosaurs and humans alike as a finishing blow, and can be executed from any side. A famed new feature into this game is the Silent Kill, which is done by drawing the knife, then attacking a human or unaware dinosaur from behind. Because Turok takes place mostly in jungle environments with a focus on ambiance, the player may kill enemies with a bow or knife without being heard or use dinosaurs to attract the attention of other enemies and slip by unnoticed. The developer Propaganda Games has included an additional, stealth mechanic in the game. The game does not utilize an aim-assist feature. The dinosaurs' intelligence are much alike the Earth dinosaurs, so other dinosaurs and all humans, including the player's allies and enemies, may be attacked. This may be done by attracting roaming dinosaurs to a firefight (via: flares, gunshots, etc.) to aid the player and help dispatch the enemy, with possible other ways depending on the situation. The dinosaurs act as a neutral force and, if the player chooses, can be used as a tool to attack enemy soldiers. The human enemies, under the leadership of Kane, are the main threat to the player, although dinosaurs may often be found wandering throughout the game. The gameplay of Turok is similar to that of most first-person shooters, with a strong focus on survival in dangerous natural environments. A planned sequel to Turok was cancelled following the closure of Propaganda Games. The game received mixed reviews from critics. This was the first and only Touchstone Games video game made after its closure in 2008. After crash landing, Turok discovers that the planet is home to all manner of dinosaurs, and must fight both the predatory creatures and Kane's private army on his mission to take down his former mentor. Players assume the role of Native American space marine Joseph Turok, who is part of a team sent to a remote planet to apprehend General Roland Kane, Turok's former commanding officer, who is now a wanted war criminal. The game is loosely based on the comic book series of the same title and is a reboot of previous Turok video games. This is the only game produced under the Touchstone Games label. Based on the comic book series of the same name, Turok: Dinosaur Hunter follows a Native American time-traveller who has to stop creatures from the Lost Land, a hostile world full of dinosaurs and other gigantic enemies, from breaching the barrier to Earth and wreaking death and destruction.Turok is a first-person shooter video game developed by Propaganda Games, and published by Disney Interactive Studios (through its Touchstone Games banner) for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in February 2008, later ported on to Microsoft Windows in April. The original game was released back in 1997 for the Nintendo 64 and Microsoft Windows and was considered one of the best shooters at the time, spawning a series of five other games ending with 2008’s reboot, Turok. The team has also announced plans to remaster Turok 2: Seeds Of Evil, though the release date for that one remains unknown. The developer has already announced plans for a full remake of the cyberpunk classic System Shock (whose long-awaited third installment was teased by Otherside Entertainment earlier this month), and now the studio has revealed that a remaster of the Jurassic shooter Turok: Dinosaur Hunter will be coming out for PC on Steam, GOG, and The Humble Store this week. Night Dive Studios is continuing its reputation for bringing the first-person shooters of the 90s back from the dead with a new, remastered coat of paint.
