Another bit of news from the Unreal Engine 5 showcase is that the new engine
will power a new
Tomb Raider game that's now in development at Crystal
Dynamics.
This tweet has word: "Crystal Dynamics is incredibly excited about the
future of Unreal and how it will help us take our storytelling to the next
level. That's why we're proud to announce that our next #tombraider game is
being built on Unreal Engine 5!" It also includes a video message, and here's a
transcript of that:
Crystal Dynamics is proud to be a part of the launch
of Unreal Engine 5. This new engine translates into next level storytelling and
gameplay experiences. And that's why we are thrilled to announce today that we
have just started development of our next Tomb Raider game, powered by Unreal
Engine 5. Our goal is to push the envelope of fidelity, and to deliver the
high-quality cinematic action/adventure experience that fans deserve from both
Crystal Dynamics and the Tomb Raider franchise. We can't wait to take this next
journey together. Thank you, and congratulations again to the Epic Games
team.
