This year’s unforgettable Tomb Raider<\/em> reboot<\/a> is getting a “Definitive Edition” release on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One early next year. January 28th to be specific.<\/p>\n

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition<\/em> has been completely re-built by Crystal Dynamics (in collaboration with United Front Games and Nixxes) to take advantage of the new console tech from Sony and Microsoft, including upgrades like native 1080p resolution and a “next-gen” Lara Croft model featuring TressFX hair rendering and enhanced detail. Console-specific features are being added as well, such as Kinect functionality on Xbox One for using hand gestures to rotate and inspect relics and voice commands to change weapons and menu navigation. On PS4, the game will be able to remote play stream to PlayStation Vita and the Dualshock 4 light bar will glow red and orange when Lara’s carrying a torch, or make quick flashes when Lara’s shooting guns.<\/p>\n

All previous downloadable content, in addition to the Final Hours<\/em> documentary videos and digital copies of Dark Horse’s tie-in comic and BradyGames’ art book<\/a>, will also be included. Special art book packaging will be available as well for pre-order customers. <\/p>\n
