Square Enix announced today a new Tomb Raider game from their Redwood City based studio, Crystal Dynamics. This new adventure will feature a young and inexperienced Lara Croft and her journey to stay alive.
“Forget everything you knew about TOMB RAIDER, we are exploring things that have never been done before in this game,” said Darrell Gallagher, Head of Studio, Crystal Dynamics. “This is an origins story that creates Lara Croft and takes her on a character defining journey like no other
Game Informer magazine will feature the game’s debut in their January 2011 issue which will hit newsstands on December 11th. Subscribers should get their issue today.
There are no screenshots or videos to show…yet. But a Tomb Raider reboot is quite exciting since the last few games haven’t been quite as polished as they should have been. I have been a fan of the series since the PSOne days and it’s been one of my favorites so I am glad to see that they haven’t given up on her yet. From the images that I have seen (which have just been the Game Informer cover shots), they have changed her look a bit removing the swollen lips and overly attractive features. She actually looks like a real person. Of course, this is just her face…we’ll have to wait and see what other wonderful changes they may have made…for better or for worse. I’m pretty excited by this announcement and will be following this one closely!
