Tomb Raider release date shifts to 2013
 
Hello everyone,

Below you’ll find a very important message from Darrell Gallagher, Head of Studio at Crystal Dynamics.
[INDENT]-------
A Message to the Tomb Raider Community

When Crystal Dynamics first set out to reboot the Tomb Raider franchise, there were two goals that we were extremely passionate about. The first was to create a modern Tomb Raider game that would surprise and excite gamers. The second was to make this the best game of our careers, something we would be really proud to be a part of. We truly believe that we have something very special on our hands and we can’t wait to share it with you.

Our priority now is to make sure we fully deliver the very highest quality game. In order to do this, we have decided to move the game’s release date by a few months, from Fall 2012 to the first quarter of 2013.

We’re doing things that are completely new to Tomb Raider in this game and the additional development time will allow us to put the finishing touches into the game and polish it to a level that you deserve. We believe this is the right choice and I guarantee it will be worth the wait. The game is looking amazing and we can't wait to show it to everyone at E3 in a few weeks.

[/INDENT]While disappointment in having to wait a bit longer for Tomb Raider is natural, I – and the rest of the studio – firmly believe this is the right decision. I know you’ll agree when holding an exceptional experience in your hands come launch day.

I’m sure you’ve got lots of questions about the news above. Please use this thread to voice your questions and comments. I’ll personally gather the common inquires and pose them to Darrell in the next Crystal Habit Podcast, so here’s an opportunity to make your voice heard.

To take a bit of the edge off the delay, we decided to release a new screenshot hinting at content you’ll be seeing at E3.

As always thank you for your continued support!

Meagan Marie

A little disappointing. I love the screenshot though. The graphics have improved drastically.

Not surprised.

Really, this just means an even better TR. I'm disappointed, but I'm glad that the proper time has been given to develop the game. As long as you guys aren't skipping E3 and other big events (and you make your presence a little more prevalent), I'm cool.

And that screenshot :yik:. Wow. Impressive.

Yep. My instinct was right.
