SCi
Entertainment CEO Jane Cavanagh has confirmed
the anticipated sequel to Tomb
Raider Legend which is currently being developed
by U.S. studio Crystal
Dynamics will exploit the incredible power
of Sony's Playstation 3 console during the Company's
annual financial statement.
"Our
2008 products will include new versions of Tomb
Raider (including a PS3 version) and many
of our other key franchises. We also plan new
franchises, including completely new products
from both Crystal Dynamics (developers of Tomb
Raider) and Io Interactive (developers of Hitman
and Kane
& Lynch).
SCi will
also release a special Tomb
Raider 10th Anniversary Edition game celebrating
ten years of the legendary Lara
Croft in the second half of the 2007 financial
year along with the release of Tomb Raider Legend
on the Nintendo Gamecube, DS and GBA platforms.
The largest
contribution to revenue and profitability in the
year to June 30 was Tomb Raider Legend. This product
was launched on Xbox 360, Xbox, PS2 and PC in
April 2006 and on PSP in June 2006. During the
financial year SCi sold over 2.9 million units
of Tomb Raider Legend to retailers and distributors.
