Tomb Raider Anniversary Announced

31 Oct, 2006, 3:00 pm IST | by Avinash Bali |

To celebrate Lara's 10th birthday, developer Eidos is planning on releasing a remake of the first Tomb Raider game for the PS2, PSP and PC (no XBox or Xbox 360 version). Now this isn't a sequel to Tomb Raider Legend (that's happening sometime in 2008 by the way), it's a tribute to their pin-up girl who has spent nearly 10 years in the big bad world of video games.

Here's what you can expect in the game:

Inspired by the first Tomb Raider videogame, originally released in 1996, Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a totally new 2006 adventure for Lara, faithfully preserving the elements which made the original Tomb Raider such a classic, selling over 7 million copies worldwide. Using an enhanced 'Tomb Raider Legend' game engine, the graphics, technology and physics bring Lara's adventure and pursuit of a mystical artefact known only as the Scion right up to today's technology standards and will offer gamers a completely new gameplay experience.

The puzzles are now more in depth and incorporate environmental interaction and physics driven solutions. The level design and flow of gameplay are inspired by the original videogame making Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary a brand new experience in gaming, while still invoking the nostalgia of the first adventure in Tomb Raiding.

Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary is being developed by Crystal Dynamics and will be available in spring 2007.
