It's basically the same game in every way, updated a bit with things you can see listed on the store page.
A few minor changes have been made but it's still Turok: Dinosaur Hunter

What kind of changes? I wouldn't like map or rebalance chagnes. Does it have multiplayer tho?

No multiplayer. The maps are 95% the same, with some of the keys and items moved around. Enemies are a bit tougher, and I think they respawn a little quicker than the N64 version. But otherwise, it's the same game, but prettier and plays a lot smoother. ;)

I never played none of them. Would you suggest me to play it on emulator to grasp the full experience of old-school-like gameplay of Turok, since nintendo 64 was banned here once it was popular and now it's impossible to get it, or just play this PC version?? Was the PC version released just recently?

Bosses are weaker and level design wise stuff is changed. Caves are not even dark, and secret area portals spawn more frequently. Knife is still OP which is what counts.

There is an old PC version that isn't so great, this one is remastered and I would recommend you give this one a go as it is vastly superior to all other versions.

Can you please explain why and eleborate it more?? I would rather experience the initial gameplay and balance, I wouldn't really like rebalances much. Same for graphics, I would rather experience it old-school than new with lameass new lights that most ports for most old games like to add in.

I'd recommend playing this version, it looks much better, plays at a buttery 60fps, lets you adjust the fog to your liking, has perfect controls and a bunch of other small improvements. The 'original' PC version came out in 1997 like the N64 version, but it was also really bad compared to this version. It's the same game, just higher-resolution. Don't play the old ones; it's not worth the hassle or crappy framerates / field of view.

The 'rebalances' are tiny, and I can barely notice them. I played the N64 version when I was 8 years old all those years ago too, and it feels like the same game, just much better.

The changes are not that drastic, just take a look around the forum of all the complains of unhappy people it doesn't look like Battlefield.
They put the game onto a new engine for modern systems, they added a few things such as bloom and fxaa, tweaked the controls and very, very slightly rearranged a few things.

The old games have terrible controls that feel quite awkward being used to games of today, for the most part there are no major changes that would throw off your experience.

I hope so, the game is still incredible high priced though, although I have desire to test the game itself.
