Crystal Dynamics Focusing on Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition and its Sequel, No Story DLC Planned

Crystal Dynamics has confirmed that their 2013 hit, Tomb Raider, will not be receiving any story-based DLC to coincide with the release of the Definitive Edition or in the future. The team has thrown all of their resources into developing the Definitive Edition for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, in addition to the game’s unannounced sequel.

So they choose to release map packs for the boring MP instead of story dlc.

SixtyNine3800d ago

Doesn't that mean you got a complete game? Then we've got folks who say, content is left out of games so it can be sold as dlc afterwards..

SwordandShield3800d ago

They should have done what ND is doing with TLOU. I don't hear anyone complaining about that.

Dirtnapstor3800d ago (Edited 3800d ago )

Yup. No story add-ons, such a shame. MP was alright, but the SP is where this game did shine. You would have thought SE would have listen to all the responsive comments the first time around. I know it takes time, but surely there was SP content on the cutting floor.

LoaMcLoa3800d ago

They are making a sequel. No need for story DLC really.

Meltic3800d ago

wont buy this... if they would release something new i would buy it but not complete it again just beacuse its next gen. Il save those 60 bucks to THIEF februari

Eonjay3800d ago (Edited 3800d ago )

I agree. Also, the way these games are falling in price (ala Amazon Deals and what not) I figure I will just wait a months and get it for $40. I can guarantee it will be on sale before March 1st.

Tdmd3800d ago (Edited 3800d ago )

Great game - one of my 2013's favorites! It is awesome to learn they are making a sequel. I just hope they have a bigger focus on the tombs next time, but other than that, I've absolutely loved what they have done for Lara!

exsturminator013800d ago

Same here, I thought it was fantastic. The ending left me excited for where they'd go next and I'm pretty stoked to see them mention a sequel already. With SE trashing sales so badly, I was worried they wouldn't greenlight another entry.

_LarZen_3800d ago

I was extremely impressed by the new Tomb Raider game on PC. So impressed that I am actually forking out $60 again for the PS4 version.

Meltic3800d ago

save those 60 bucks instead.. lol not good thinking

_LarZen_3800d ago

I want to see how it will be on the PS4. There are allot of new assets that just are not present in the PC version.

And since it's one of the best games I have played in 2013 I am actually really looking forward to play the game one more time.

And it's $60..not your life savings.

WitWolfy3800d ago

Will probably trade in my 360 version for the PS4 version.

The Best Tomb Raider Games Ranked

We've gone on many adventures with Lara Croft. With another reboot in the making, Wealth of Geeks felt it was a good time to go down the nostalgia rabbit hole and remember the best of those tomb-raiding thrills.

I do agree that Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness was the worse one 😂 I remember playing some of it and I took it back. That game was just awful in every way. I bought it used at gamestop and glad they had that 7 day return policy for used games 😂

Pyrofire95113d ago

Would it be worth saying why?

ZeekQuattro113d ago

Simple. He's been hating on the Tomb Raider reboots for years. I can't imagine seeing them at the top of a best TR game list let alone being on the list in general sitting well with him because of it.

-Foxtrot113d ago

Zeek

“Hating”

No no, just pointing out how TR mutated into a generic action adventure game losing the appeal of what it once was when it was more about puzzles and platforming over going Rambo, slaughtering waves of enemies

But hey, continue being a dick and speaking about me like I’m not going to see the comment.

MeatyUrologist112d ago

Foxtrot, I'm curious if you have played the most recent games. Sure the 2013 reboot was hugely focused on combat, but each follow up became less and less about combat to the point where outside of a few large scale story missions I don't even remember combat being a part of shadow of the tomb raider. Shadow was so puzzle focused it actually was a bit much for me and I love the TR puzzles.

I still feel like Rise was the best of the series and I was a huge fan of the originals. To me it struck the perfect balance of exploration, platforming, puzzles, and combat. Not saying your opinion is wrong I'm just curious what you think they should have done different. Games do need to evolve somewhat to stay relevant. Would you prefer small linear jumping platform levels like the original?

RavenWolfx113d ago

I would agree Rise for 1 and the reboot as 2. Shadow is a bit high, though.

Sonic1881113d ago (Edited 113d ago )

I think Shadow wasn't even develop by crystal dynamics. I thought it was the worse in the new trilogy

Pyrofire95113d ago

That's right. Shadow was developed by Eidos Montreal who who went and made Marvels Guardians of the Galaxy next. (Great game)
Meanwhile after Rise of the Tomb Raider, Crystal Dynamics made Marvels Avengers. (bad game)

MeatyUrologist113d ago

Agrees. First two are correct but Shadow should be around 5-6.

terstomp113d ago

For me, Legend should be alot higher (along with the other two ). Shadow, I enjoyed it, but has too much has fluff, as modern games tend to do. Playing the remastered series, and apart from the controls, is very good.

jznrpg113d ago

I really enjoyed the first 2 games, Legend and the first of the reboots and the rest I didn’t get into so I never finished.

robtion113d ago

Completely subjective list. I really liked Underworld, I preferred Lara's design. That said I loved the horror/uncharted feel of the reboot. I think all the TR games have strengths and weaknesses. None are objectively better in every way.
