Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Tomb Raider Multiplayer Modes Revealed, Details Inside

Posted on Thursday, January 3 @ 07:50:05 Eastern by Alex_Osborn


Just last week, it was revealed that Crystal Dynamic's upcoming Tomb Raider reboot will feature multiplayer. Now, we have a few details on exactly what will be offered alongside the main campaign when the game releases this March.

On the official Tomb Raider forums, a number of details from OXM's exclusive feature were posted. As one might expect, there will be a Team Deathmatch option, which pits a group of Lara's pals against a team of vicious natives. Players will alternate sides after each match in a best out of three battle.

Next up is a mode called "Rescue," which tasks a team of "survivors" with picking up and delivering med-packs to various locations around the map. Meanwhile, another team called "scavengers" try to thwart the other team's efforts by taking them out.

And last but not least is a game type called "Cry for Help." Unfortunately, all we know about it right now is that it places a large emphasis on discovering and collecting stuff. 

Interestingly enough, it doesn't look like Lara will make an appearance in the multiplayer. There is, however, a large cast of characters to choose from. You'll be able to customize your loadouts and upgrade your character through a leveling system.

The game's multiplayer is being developed by the talented team behind Deus Ex: Human Revolution over at Eidos Montreal, so don't go dismissing it just yet.

    The ideas sound cool, but do they really belong in a Tomb Raider game?

    It good be okay. But as it is, I would feel better if they said there WASN'T any multiplayer (like BioShock Infinite).

    Same here. Even if it turns out to be an incredible experience to play with friends, I just can't get excited about this because I rarely get into multiplayer games as it is.

    Call me crazy, but if every video game was solely a single-player experience, I'd be totally fine with that.

    This sounds a lot like the Max Payne 3 multiplayer. Solid 3rd-person mechanics, deathmatch and objective modes, customizing different characters and loadouts based on the gametype/team you're playing.

    Much of this is wishful thinking, but if it is anything like MP3, I think it could add value to the overall package. I definitely prefer single-player 99 times out of 100, but I won't dismiss it without knowing more.

    Max Payne 3 multiplayer was pretty awesome. I hope to see the bullet-time mechanics elsewhere because they actually played out well.

    I like what I read about traps and destructible bridges, etc. Hopefully one of said traps is a catapult of some kind.
