Everyone expected to see a sequel to 2013’s Tomb Raider at this year’s E3 Expo and Crystal Dynamics did not disappoint with Rise of the Tomb Raider. However, another Tomb Raider sequel announced today is a bit of a surprise. A welcome one, but a surprise all the same.
Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics have announced Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, a sequel to 2010’s much beloved Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. The overhead puzzle platformer ups the number of co-op players to four and includes bigger setpieces all around:
Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris takes place deep in the deserts of Egypt. In her new adventure, Lara must join forces with rival treasure hunter Carter Bell and imprisoned gods Horus and Isis, to defeat the evil god Set. As Lara and her companions fight the elements of nature across the sands and through ancient tombs, they will battle legendary deities and creatures of myth. With the fate of the world at stake, Lara must recover the fragments of Osiris to stop Set from enslaving all mankind.
No release date was announced, but we do know that Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris will be “Coming Soon” for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
