Christmas i think.
A year after the Xbox release, so late 2016.
Thanks.
I think PS4 owners will still care. Uncharted is coming out in April isn't it so that won't impact Tomb Raider at all. I guess it depends on what else is coming out around the same time. If it's just the annual Xmas showelware like CoD and AC then I think Tomb Raider will do quite well. If it goes up against another Fallout-esque game or Horizon or something like that then it might struggle.
But the reboot was quite popular among Playstation gamers so I suspect this one will too. And it got fairly decent reviews so I'm sure it will do fine.
All valid points. What about price though? The Xbox One version is already widely available for about £28, could well be cheaper or even (shock) free on GWG by then. Will a £50 price tag for what could be viewed as a year old game, with a cheaper version on the other side of the shop, have a psychological impact?
I hope so anyway, because it would be a great shame if Lara doesn't see another outing because of poor sales.
So I urge all PS4 owners to support this great game because it deserves to do well, crystal dynamics deserve credit for there work.
By the time this does arrive on the PS4, sales of the PS4 could well be near 50 million! If just 5% of those could make ROTR a great success. The future of Tomb Raider could lay in the hands of the PS4, something to think about!
By the way, THIS is the original thread (which fell off the board).
Either way I look forward to playing it at some point in the future on PS4.
Is it as good as the last one? I thought that was amazing?
Yes, i'm one of them. I've got all of them since the very first one back in the 90's. I can't wait to get this.
It's a similar story and a lot more tombs/puzzles to do. Nothing very challenging though.
Yeah true, but as Hotbird suggested, if they go a definitive version of it with all DLC then that might solve the price issue. Sony could do a bit of smart marketing and give us the first one on plus (even tho you and many others have bought/got it a few times now).
Also as gillyallen said a few people could boycott the game which mightn't help things either.
I'm sure the game will do just fine tho. It's a quality game (so I believe) so people will buy it.
I don't think I can wait that long when I have an xbox 360!!!
It's unlikely to sell like hotcakes, which it would have had it been released on both consoles at once, but I don't think the price difference will put people off buying it. This has never been the case for any other timed exclusive.
There is a new story chapter called 'Blood Ties' – which will be playable using PlayStation VR You play as Lata searching her Father's mansion for clues to proof of ownership.
There's an extra mode named 'Lara's Nightmare' in which you must defend the mansion from zombies.
PS4 gets all of the previously released DLC
There's a new co-op mode named Endurance.
"Two players must team up to survive the harsh elements by day, as well as lethal threats from enemies by night. Fire takes fuel, food restores health, and every resource must be hunted, collected, or crafted. Battle to the top of the leaderboards, as others try to beat your longest survival run."
Does this justify at wait and, I suspect, a full price tag?
