The Turrican series has been trumpeted by many as some of the best run-and-gun platforming gaming has to offer. If you’ve never experienced a Turrican game, today’s your lucky day. Turrican Anthology Vol. I & II are now digitally available for Switch, and they both pack in a serious collection of Turrican games from over the years. Now’s the time to see what all the fuss is about!

Turrican Anthology Vol. I & II contain ten Turrican games across two separate collections, from the Amiga, SNES, and Genesis/Mega Drive era. Celebrated as a ground-breaking video game series, Turrican was mixing exploration with non-stop action, and one of video game’s finest soundtracks by legendary German composer Chris Huelsbeck.
