“Microsoft has always seen huge potential in Tomb Raider and they will get behind this game with more support across development, marketing and retail than ever before,” a Square Enix representative added (via GameSpot). “We believe [this] will be a step in continuing to build the Tomb Raider franchise as one of the biggest in gaming”.
Rise of the Tomb Raider will be available next holiday season.
