New Lara Croft Tomb Raiider Announced

The next Lara Croft Tomb Raider was just announced and this time we're presented with a younger (21), edgier and (from the pictures) hotter Lara. This is being billed as an origin story, so we can expect to learn more about Lara and how she became the person she did.

Somehow, our Lara gets stranded on an island which turns out to be far from deserted, and must fight for survival. "After a brutal storm destroys the boat she was travelling on, a frightened young woman is left washed ashore on an unknown beach. On her own but not alone she has only one goal, to survive."

This game also promises to have more open areas to explore, a more open ended feel for us RPG fans and a better, revamped shooting system, ditching auto aim for free aim combat. Since the theme of this game is survival, the focus is on scavenging for food, water, weapons and equipment, and on crafting equipment and weapons from found items. And since Lara is just starting out, there will be some serious training involved to get her to be all she can be.

The release is a ways away, though, so we'll have to wait for this.

Good Luck and good gaming.
