[ April 5th 2005 ]

Eidos has officially lifted the embargo on pictures of new Lara Croft from Tomb Raider Legend. Points to note include a shiny new headset attached to Lara's ear, binoculars and a circular device attached to Lara's belt and a band of grenades tied to Lara's belt. According to our source, the below profile of Lara Croft will be featured in next month's edition of PSM Magazine (U.S. version) along with more information on Tomb Raider 7.

Californian-based Crystal Dynamics took charge of the Tomb Raider franchise in 2004 after publisher Eidos ported development from original architects Core Design in a move the company said would maximise the commercial opportunity of one of its key franchises. Although details have been sparse, Eidos has confirmed Crystal Dynamics intend to restore the original properties of Lara Croft - ardent Tomb Raider, procurer of all things ancient - and a game more in tune with Prince of Persia.

Eidos has also begun prepping the official Tomb Raider web site for a forthcoming announcement officially introducing the future of Lara Croft. www.tombraider.com informs fans of the series that information is "coming soon". Stay tuned!
