Is there anything more daunting than mastering the controls of an N64 first-person shooter, or realizing it’s been nearly 18 months since the last update for the Genesis?
Today brings something exciting: two classic N64 shooters are making a comeback on the “mature” section of the NSO app, and both hail from Acclaim’s Iguana studios. For fans of retro gaming, Turok 2: The Seeds of Evil released in 1998, alongside Shadow Man from 1999, are back. Turok had its roots in the US, while Shadow Man took shape in the UK, uniting gamers from both sides of the pond. This latest update marks the third expansion this month, following the recent rollout of F-Zero GP Legend/Climax, and who could forget the addition of Banjo-Tooie just the other week?
Both of these iconic titles have been given a fresh coat of paint for the Switch, with Turok 2 getting a remaster in 2019 and Shadow Man following suit in 2022. Whether you’re a nostalgic fan or a newcomer curious about these classic adventures, there’s never been a better time to dive in.
