Rumor: in the new Tom Raider, Lara will be an idol for the Tomb Raider team
Crystal Dynamics is working on the next Tomb Raider - it's no secret. There are even some hints about the game's content. But now a few more details were leaked to the web: it seems that there will be more than one Tomb Raider in the new part.
Blogger Colin Moriarty says, who got his hands on a small excerpt of the script for the upcoming game. It's the kind they give actors at auditions. The original "leak" is hidden behind a Patreon paywall, so we'll rely on stories from eyewitnesses.
What it's about:
- The game is codenamed Project Jawbreaker.
- The tone of the narrative is down-to-earth with elements of sci-fi.
- Lara has become a seasoned adventurer with years of experience behind her. She was protecting some artifacts. Lara's adventures made their way to the tabloids from the media and shaped a new generation of tomb raiders.
- Lara's family dramas are behind her, but now she struggles with loneliness.
- Lara faces a mysterious cataclysm that is beyond her control. The heroine begins working with a team of tomb raiders.
- For the role of Lara are looking for an authentic performer: British woman from about 30 to 40, in good physical shape and about 1.7 meters tall.
Recall that Crystal Dynamics mentioned that they want to combine the Tomb Raider universe from different periods of the series. The new part is being built on Unreal Engine 5, and the publisher will apparently be a certain studio from the Embracer Group.
