Big news for dinosaur nerds: you'll soon be able to dig up a piece of history and create your very own museum! Dinosaur Fossil Hunter is launching this year and it will let you live out your dreams of discovering some really ancient history.

Check out the latest trailer for Dinosaur Fossil Hunter to see how you can design your very own museum!

In this upcoming simulation game, you'll be taking on the role of a paleontologist. You'll explore various different lands in search of invaluable treasure. You won't be digging up gold or unearthing ancient temples, though; instead, you'll be on the hunt for dinosaur fossils.

Getting to new lands is just half the journey, though! Once you're there, you'll have to actually get to the fossils. You'll make use of hand tools like shovels and brushes as you'd expect, but you'll also encounter more serious obstacles. That leaves you with only one option: blow them the heck up.

Once you've gathered up all of your goodies, you can head back home and make them a part of your very own museum. The level of customization for exhibits is pretty nuts, and paleontology enthusiasts will surely have a lot of fun making the museum their own.

When is the Dinosaur Fossil Hunter Release Date?

Unfortunately, a recent press release detailing some of the features in this game keeps things pretty vague for its upcoming launch. For now, all we can be certain of is that it's going to be launching on Steam sometime in 2020. For now, you can add Dinosaur Fossil Hunter to your wishlist on Steam.
