Exciting news for Tomb Raider fans: the upcoming remastered collection of Tomb Raider titles 4 through 6 will bring back previously unheard voice lines from Angel of Darkness.
Players can also expect significant upgrades to gameplay mechanics, particularly for Kurtis Trent.
Collection Details
This collection includes Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation (1999), Tomb Raider: Chronicles (2000), and the much-debated Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness (2003).
Like the previous remastered series, players will enjoy enhanced visuals that breathe new life into the game’s stunning environments, characters, and artifacts.
The option to toggle between classic and contemporary graphic styles will give players the flexibility to choose their preferred experience.
Enhanced Gameplay Features
The development team has revealed additional enhancements specifically for Angel of Darkness, a title that faced considerable backlash upon its initial release in the early 2000s.
In this revitalized version, players will regain Kurtis’s ability to wield the Chirugai, adding a thrilling dynamic to gameplay.
Exciting new features include a psychic shield for defense, the capability to shoot around corners while in stealth mode, and a sprinting function akin to that of Lara Croft.
Narrative and Quality of Life Improvements
Moreover, fans can look forward to the return of previously discarded voice lines from both Lara Croft and Kurtis Trent.
These additions aim to enrich the narrative experience, offering deeper insights into the storyline and its characters.
Quality-of-life enhancements will also elevate the overall gaming experience.
For instance, Werner Von Croy’s Notebook will now open automatically when Lara first awakens in the eerie abandoned train carriage, complete with fresh entries that update as players progress through the game.
Additionally, restored inventory items, like Von Croy’s cane, will conceal secrets waiting to be discovered within the inventory system.
For those eager to dive deeper into these updates, a detailed blog post about Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness Remastered is available, providing plenty of information ahead of the launch on February 14th.
Fans are in for a treat as they revisit these classic titles with fresh dialogue and improved mechanics.
