Tomb Raider to hit PS4 and Xbox One next month

MCV Staff 9th December 2013 Business News

Square Enix will release Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on next-gen consoles on January 31st in Europe.

The SKU will bundle all of the original title’s post-release DLC as well as a number of other digital extras such as costumes and the like.

There will also be some consoles-specific functionality. On PS4 the controller will light up when you use the torch and flash orange when you’re shooting, while the Xbox One SKU will offer Kinect voice-menu support.

There are also some more subtle changes, including tweaks to Lara’s character model. It will also support AMD’s TressFX tech that offers detailed hair animations – this has only ever been seen before on PC. It will also run in native 1080p, presumably on both formats.

This next-gen version has been co-developed by United Front Games.

The existence of the game was leaked by Amazon last month.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
