“It’s a great question and while I don’t control sales or prices, what I do know is that Tomb Raider is an awesome game,”- “It has received many nominations and has an amazing fan base that keeps us striving to always deliver the best and always pushing ourselves to even do better.
“If it was ‘only a facelift’ AND we were only reselling it on the same platforms we’d already shipped it on, I would see your point. But as we’re selling it on a new platform, with a lot of development work put in to custom craft it for the new platforms; with the new additions for the aesthetic, the physics, the particles, the lighting – taking advantage of next-gen features – so I absolutely stand by our decision to offer up Definitive Edition the way we are.”
The new Tomb Raider Definitive Edition game launches for PS4 and Xbox One in the US on January 28th following with a European launch on January 31st. The game includes the pre-order bonus tomb : The Tomb of the Lost Adventurer, together with a variety of multiplayer add-ons, 8 DLC maps, 6weapons and 4 characters for you to enjoy.
