On its Facebook page, Vigil Games says it made the artwork as a tribute to one of its favorite video games, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Since its inception in 2005, the developer made two games – Darksiders and Darksiders II – both of which were inspired by The Legend of Zelda series.
The next Tomb Raider game will take place in India and will feature an "unrestricted" open world setting, based on the latest rumor.
The rumours on the new game sound awful
"A natural disaster strikes northern India revealing ancient emperor Ashoka's ruins and artifacts. Lara strategically races against a Society of Raiders and other rivals for these powerful relics. The Society of Raiders are inspired by Lara yet unaffiliated and might have some opposite agendas. This also relates to a new feature based on recruiting teams and allies to strategically aid you in missions and defeating rivals. There's emphasis on a new non-lethal combat option"
"Generic Ubigame" structure.
4 companions with their own habilities.
Open or semi-open world, not clear.
Lara would have a motorcycle, to make it easier for players to explore.
MMO elements.
5 villains, very stereotypical, including a rich man, a mob boss, and two brothers.
Familiar characters returning, Jonah Maiava and Kurtis Trent.
Lara will have a skill tree with spells.
The game is a mix of various trends and genres."
Like, do they even know what Tomb Raider is anymore. I hope it's all bullshit, not everything needs to be open world.
I really hope they do a remaster of The Last Revelation and Chronicles.
Half of this sounds like a promising TR game, the other half not so much.
Im just hoping for a TR game where Tomb Raiding is mandatory and not optional.
Considering you might end up riding around in one huge map, I feel the tombs will probably be optional and end up feeling samey with the one location
The appeal of the older TR games was going on a globe trotting adventure to new locations with smaller explorable maps which acted like a huge puzzle / obstacle course. You even had non Tomb focused levels like London or the Zoo (It's a Madhouse) which paced things out in between.
oh god. please dont.
lwts go bk to ... you know, tomb raiding. that would be amazing.
Embracer don't give a toss about this. Their CEO is a known flipper (something I've said here for years - feel free to look up my history to find it)
They purchased it for 300m, making a half-arsed game to fulfil a contract and then flipping it to Amazon for 600m
At least Gearbox ended up at T2. Lets hope Deus Ex finds a new home soon because these idiots are 10x worse than MS.
Every game doesn't have to be full open world. I'm also hearing that Resident Evil 9 will be open world as well. Semi open world would be better in certain area's I guess imo

Vigil deserves a new home.
No one picked them up, which boggles the mind.
Vigil's a pretty awesome dev. I liked both Darksiders and Darksiders II quite a lot; this is just the icing on the cake.
Darksiders 1 and 2 are amazing games , that apocalyptic difficulty has you at the edge of your seat.
It's extremely sad that The main dev we all wanted safe from THQ dissolving looks the one to going down the shitter :( .
At least relic got the right home at Sega but stil...
I would love to see what else Vigil has up its sleeve, Darksiders 3, and a new IP?
now thats just badass, i still dont see how vigil wasnt picked up, imo they were one of thqs top 3.
