Square unveils new Lara Croft game

Square has lifted the curtains on the next Lara Croft outing, which the company states will arrive some time later this year as a digital download.

According to the press blurb the game is known as Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, and will apparently be quite “different” to what punters may be expecting from the nimble archaeologist. Conspicuously, the press release fails to mention the words Tomb Raider at any point, which you’d normally associate with anything related to Croft’s gaming antics.

“This is a really exciting project for Crystal Dynamics, we have created something completely new and very different to what people might be expecting,” commented Crystal Dynamics bigwig, Darrell Gallagher.

“Lara Croft is such an iconic character in videogames, with Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light we have created what we believe is a truly original digital experience.”

No platforms have been announced as of yet, though we’re keeping our fingers crossed it’ll make its way to Sony’s black box via PSN. Stay tuned.
