[Xbox One] Riser of the Tomb Raider

[iNotorious]

Dear Tomb Raider Community,

As you may have seen, we’ve just announced that Rise of the Tomb Raider, coming Holiday 2015, is exclusively on Xbox. We consider all of you to be the lifeblood of Tomb Raider and the work we do at Crystal. I’d like to give you some insight into this decision, and why we feel this is the very best thing for the Tomb Raider sequel we’re creating at the studio.

Tomb Raider in 2013 was a success due in large part to your continued support. Our goal has always been to deliver something truly special with Rise of the Tomb Raider. Today’s announcement with Microsoft is one step to help us put Tomb Raider on top of action adventure gaming. Our friends at Microsoft have always seen huge potential in Tomb Raider and have believed in our vision since our first unveil with them on their stage at E3 2011. We know they will get behind this game more than any support we have had from them in the past - we believe this will be a step to really forging the Tomb Raider brand as one of the biggest in gaming, with the help, belief and backing of a major partner like Microsoft.

This doesn’t mean that we’re walking away from our fans who only play on PlayStation or on PC. Those are great systems, with great partners, and amazing communities. We have Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris coming to those platforms this December, and Tomb Raider: The Definitive Edition is available on PS4.

We know that there are probably many more questions and concerns. Please do send them to us, and we’ll answer to the best of our ability. Meanwhile we’re going all out to try and make something truly special - the most ambitious Tomb Raider game ever built.

Thanks,

Darrell Gallagher
Crystal Dynamics Head of Studios​

Really really really bad move by Square Enix. You just can't make a series in the midst of its story line an exclusive to a platform unless it's a new IP. YOU DUN GOOFED!

Next Tomb Raider is Xbox Exclusive? GOOD. PlayStation took 60's Batman away from me in Arkham Origins. Granted, Origins was not nearly as good as City or Asylum because of the worst plot twist, some weak points aka Deathstroke not doing shit despite being promoted to do so, and the glitches, but I COULD'VE BEEN ADAM WEST. YOU DESERVE IT. I HATE YOU.

If it's on xbox 360 I'll play it but I'm not about to cough up that much money for a xbox 1 just for one tomb raider, despite tomb rider being an excellent game.

There might be a chance for the 360, if the console can still handle it.

Not even a huge Tomb Raider fan ( only played the old ones on PC)
But wow. That's gonna backfire so bad, that it's gonna be funny to watch haha.

We'll just stand there and watch them burn down as they made a grave mistake abandoning more than 70% for their fans.
