"Creating something truly special is incredibly challenging. You have got to really want it: you have to be passionate; you have to care about it, and you have to dedicate yourself," said Darrell Gallagher, head of studio at Crystal Dynamics. "We have a studio full of talented people who have put their hearts into making this game - this is not just a game on their resume, speak to any one of them, they've been on a journey. We hope that the game we've built will endure and that this is a well deserving renaissance for Lara Croft."
Written by Rhianna Pratchett and John Stafford, with music composed by Jason Graves, TOMB RAIDER explores the intense origin story of Lara Croft® and her ascent from an untried and untested young woman to a hardened survivor. Armed only with raw instincts and the ability to push beyond the limits of human endurance, Lara must fight to unravel the dark history of a forgotten island to escape its relentless hold. For the first time, the game also features a multiplayer campaign developed by Eidos Montréal, a Square Enix studio.
In addition, the game has been accompanied by a wealth of companion items and interactive media, including a Brady® Strategy Guide and companion art book (The Art of Survival), a Dark Horse Comic, written by Pratchett, (TOMB RAIDER: The Beginning), an Official Soundtrack, an official TOMB RAIDER Online Store, and The Final Hours of TOMB RAIDER App available on iTunes, the Amazon Appstore and coming soon to Steam.
