PLAY magazine has scored an exclusive unveiling of Tomb Raider Underworld, Lara Croft's third adventure under the aegis of U.S. developer Crystal Dynamics. The issue features a world-exclusive including screenshots and an interview with Eric Lindstrom and can be purchased online and downloaded right now.

According to PLAY, "Lara's adventure takes place after the events of Tomb Raider Legend. Her adventure will be a thrill ride for anyone new to the franchise. The emphasis is on bringing Lara's world to life, a lush, vast interactive world that reacts and remembers. It's pure woman versus wild."

That's the new anticipated Tomb Raider 8 due out next year on the Xbox 360, Sony PS3 and Windows PC.

I can still remember the "Nude Raider" patch for the first Tomb Raider game...hope they create the same type of patch now that the gfx are a lot more realistic

I heard a rumour today that the game 'may' be out November 2008.

Usually we get the new game after the first quarter so we will have to wait and see.

Latest news, Tomb Raider Underworld is out next Christmas on 6 gaming systems!!!

icestar2 · 12-01-2008, 15:50

I would'nt count on it just yet. With SCi possibly posting a loss and needing financial help then I could see futher delays possible. My guess is this may also be why they are planning for all six platforms to make maxium profit but this in itself could lead to possible delays.

Ouch - Not looking good at all. Would be a massive shame if they went under.

Wow now I'm excited

Me too. Always loved the TR games, and Anniversary was a great return to form. For me, Uncharted beat it, though. It'll be interesting to see if (in my own personal view) Lara can reclaim her crown.

I have fond mammaries of the first Tomb Raider game. Not sure if I ever actually played any of the others... don't particularly remember.

I think the new one will have to be pretty special to beat Uncharted (which, to me, is one of the PS3's top two best exclusive games, the other being the awesome MGS4).

Yes it certainly is. Big, big Tomb Raider fan here so am really looking forward to the next in the series.

They have used motion capture like was done with uncharted so the movment's should be fluid and life-like

Boaz · 22-08-2008, 10:20

Same here. Been an avid fan since the first game was released.

This is looking really good.

After Anniversary and Legend I can't wait for this.

Although on an other note I went and tried to play Angel of Darkness the other week. OMG so poor.

Tell me about it. Looked forward to when AOD was released but hated playing as Kurtis. He was so slow, or maybe they did that on purpose so Boaz could get me lol.

What system are you guys getting Tomb Raider Underworld for?

I usually get it for the PS2 but am hoping to get it for the PC this year.
