The game's official webpage reveals a change of release date...

If you were one of those people anxiously awaiting an all-new Tomb Raider, I have some bad news for you. Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness, which was expected to ship sometime in late spring / early summer, has now quietly slipped back into a "early Q4 2003" release for the PlayStation 2 and PC. Basically that means you won't see it until the fall of this year. Interestingly, many retailers still have ship dates of June, but I'm sure they'll be changing that soon enough.

You may recall that AoD was originally planned for a November 2002 release, was moved to February 2003, and then delayed until April. I guess this latest delay shouldn't be that surprising then. After all these postponements, when the game finally does release, we can only hope good use of the time was made to create a highly polished title.

AoD is supposed to reinvent the Tomb Raider series with a "new Lara" that has a "new attitude." This time around, there will even be some RPG aspects if you want to call them that. Lara will be able to improve her abilities depending on how you play the game. As you solve puzzles and explore, you'll be rewarded in the form of improvements to Lara's strength, stamina and agility. Another interesting aspect is that for the very first time in a Tomb Raider game, Lara has the ability to talk to characters. The choices you make in conversation will affect Lara's route through the game, possibly adding some replay value.

:cry: :cry: :cry:

Alot of sources have been getting mixed up with the date. The game is still slated for june.

The whole mix up comes from the whole "Q4" statement. When eidos made that announcement they were referring to quarter 4 of thier own financial year rather than the fourth quarter of the year. Quarter 4 of Eidos Interactive's finacial year ends on June 30th. TR:AOD is due out before then.

:arrr:

got this from the new core design website..they got some other collectibles too like TR fan-kit and stuff..

lol dont know what you guys are fussing about, when the states finally does get it, and you all post about how good/bad it is, I'll be stuck in EU with no AoD, and only Grandia X to keep me occupied :(

I think this Image best describes my thoughts on this game --) :bang: . To me the Tomb Raider games....absolutely EVERY one of them,.. were steaming piles of dog mess. Crappy Graphics...VERY crappy controls, and a crappy storyline..hmm I think its safe to say thats down right CRAPPY. The Tomb Raider series is DEAD. Theres no use in beating a dead horse and in this instance theyve allready beaten the poor dead horse theyre setting its blood soaked remians on fire and placing it on our door steps in a brown paper bag (Get the reference ?) . They released multiple sequals to this game hoping that its name alone would sell it. And now all of a sudden they want to try and actually IMPROVE upon the game...even if I were a fan of the series I wouldnt buy this game no matter how good people said it was. Lara Croft has lost her appeal anyway...I prolly wont even go see the next TR movie in theatres like I did the last....so as the valley girls would say "Tomb Raider is soooooo 2 years ago"

June 20th
