De nieuwe features van Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered uitgelicht

Over een paar weken verschijnt Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered en met deze aankomende release, heeft ontwikkelaar Aspyr nu wat nieuwe informatie gedeeld. Zo zijn alle drie de games voorzien van een foto modus, waarmee men de trend voortzet gezien de vorige trilogie deze optie ook bevat.

Men is echter een stapje verder gegaan door nieuwe mogelijkheden toe te voegen, waardoor spelers nog meer mooie kiekjes kunnen maken. Een van de nieuwe features is de ‘Flyby Camera Maker’, waarmee spelers dynamische, cinematische shots kunnen maken. De video hieronder laat er meer van zien.

Andere nieuwe features hieronder op een rijtje:

• Ammo counter – Another new feature designed to enhance your overall gameplay experience! Now, you’ll have a sleek, on-screen display showing the remaining ammo you have for each weapon in your arsenal, ensuring you’re always ready for the next encounter. If you’re managing resources during an intense boss fight or planning your next move, we hope that the Ammo Counter will keep you sharp and in control.
• Cutscene skipper – We fully realize that this fan-base is very passionate about playing, and playing, and playing these games over and over again. Thus, we wanted to make it a little easier to get through the chit-chat and jump back into the action – totally up to the player’s choice though, of course! If you want to re-watch that cutscene for the 5th time, more power to you! Maybe you’ll unlock some kind of achievement for that…maybe not. Either way, we hope you enjoy having options!
• New animations – Lara Croft’s adventures have always been defined by her agility, elegance, and grace, so in Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, we’ve introduced extra animations that we hope will breathe fresh life into your gameplay experience!
• 1. Slide To Run: Continue running after reaching the end of a slope, simply push forwards at the end of a slope. This works with both Tank and Modern control schemes and is toggleable in the Options menu. This was an unused animation from the original games that we’ve restored for the remaster!
• 2. Hang on a ledge (behind): Press the Action (for tank) or secondary (for Modern) button when close to a ledge behind Lara and she will safely step down to it.
• 3. Hang on a ledge (front): While walking, press the Action (for tank) or secondary (for Modern) button close to a ledge in front of Lara and she will safely step down to it.
• 4. Turn around in place: While walking, press the Roll button while Lara is stopped to make her turn in place. This is for Modern controls only!
• Classic cheat codes return – Fans of the original games will be thrilled to know that the classic cheat codes are making their return in Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered! Whether it’s infinite ammo, skipping levels, or other nostalgic tricks, every cheat from the original releases will work just as you remember. And if your memory needs a little jog, don’t worry—Aspyr’s support site will have a full list of cheat codes available closer to launch. Time to relive those iconic moments with a little extra flair.
