Seems Four Player Co-Op (http://www.fourplayercoop.com/news/444-tomb-raider-reboot-the-first-details) managed to nab some apparent up coming concept art for Edios/Crystal Dynamic's new TR installment, including one of a press release.
ALL SEEMS SHADY BRO.
Yet Crystal Dynamic swooped in mighty fast to get them to remove said pictures and information, yet high quality pictures have also leaked, but they obviously didn't have any time to confirm this crazy shit as of yet.
Lulz ensued.
Here is the press statement in question:
When a sudden storm destroys her research vessel, a young and inexperienced Lara Croft finds herself stranded on a mysterious and remote island hidden off the shores of Japan. Despite several signs of various inhabitants the island is oddly deserted, and an uneasy feeling settles in as strange sounds emerge from the shadows.
With only her determination, inner strength, and resourcefulness to help her, Lara must overcome the challenges of a harsh and unforgiving journey that will take her across a vast island wilderness and deep into the claustrophobic and menacing underground tombs from the island’s past. As she struggles to prevail through brutal combat encounters and treacherous exploration, Lara will be pushed to her limits and forced to adapt to her situation in order to survive and escape from the lethal predators that stalk her every move.
Hunt or be hunted: Evade outsmart, track and kill mysterious enemies that hunt you as you prey
Survival Action: Brutally attack and defend yourself as you fight to survive through visceral one-on-one melee combat
Creative survival: React and adapt to the island by using only that which you can salvage from the environment like climbing axes, rope, and machetes that can be used to unlock new traversal and combat gameplay options.
Free Movement: Scramble up a vertical cliff wall, sprint and leap across a huge chasm, steer mid-air to land a misdirected jump. There is no one right way to traverse, survive, and explore the harsh environment of the island.
Open Cohesive World’s: The diverse multi-region island is an open playground alive with creatures, weather and natural elements.
Origin Story: This new Tomb Raider concept reboots the franchise by exploring the origins of Lara Crofts transformation into a hardened adventurer as you unravel the story behind the island’s mysterious past.

And my god i want to believe, it all went downhill from The Last Revelation and just got worse.
If this is the new direction they are taking, dear god it looks ALOT better, i can't stand a poorly designed cartoon looking character no longer, along with a terrible plot line and reused and not vamped control and play system.
I'd like to think it could go into a better and more gritty and realistic direction such as Uncharted.
I refuse to acknowledge faggotry such as Angels of Darkness and Underworld anymore.
