NEXT GEN CONFIRMED
FOR 2002

[ July 21st 2001 ]
Derbyshire
based studios Core Design have confirmed their
latest Tomb Raider title code-named "Next Generation"
will be released November 2002, specifically for
PC and Playstation II platforms. Tomb Raider Next
Generation will be a marked departure from The
Last Revelation and their latest Lara Croft offering
Tomb Raider Chronicles with Core aiming for a
more adult orientated adventure sporting light
RPG elements in the form of attribute development.
Rather
than allowing players to tweak the game's characters
to their liking, certain actions - such as running
and sprinting - will automatically become more
effective the more a player performs them. This
allows Core to include areas in the game that
are accessible only by characters of a certain
proficiency level. Lara Croft has undergone extensive
rendering sporting over 5,000 polygons & supported
by a new game engine which capitalizes on the
PS2's vast terrain based capabilities.
