The Tomb Raider remasters keep on coming with the announcement we have for the Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered
Just in case you needed more of the IP in your life, we have the announcement that Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered is now going to be a thing out there on February 14th of 2025. We will get to add three more titles from the IP to all of our modern systems with Aspyr bringing all of these to the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC just as they have the other titles we have had not too long ago. So, if you are in the market to have Lara Croft and the Tomb Raider IP slapping you around on Valentine's Day, you can mark it all down right now. Just a bit of a wait, but it is something you can ask your loved ones to give you when the time is right. If you have loved ones that will do so, at least…
As we had in the previous Tomb Raider Remastered collection, this one will give The Last Revelation, Chronicles, and The Angel Of Darkness entries to the IP a massive visual upgrade. Updating character models, textures, lighting, and environments to closer bring the title to a look that might fit in with games of today. It also will fix some of the gameplay limitations that these Tomb Raider titles had with controls and platforming that was just a product of the time given the hardware. Along with adding the trophy/achievement support and a photo mode so you can capture Lara doing all of the various moves and poses along the way in the games. Have a look at a tease for how all of this has been advanced then pre-order it all now if it looks like the perfect distraction you are going to need when it launches.
