Tomb Raider: Anniversary Edition – UPDATE!

Tomb Raider

Last week we brought you news of a canceled Tomb Raider game previously under development at Core Design. The game was rumored to be an updated compilation of Tomb Raider’s 1&2 completely redone with a new proprietary engine made by Core Design specifically for the PSP, rumor also has it the game was to be titled Tomb Raider: Anniversary Edition.

Today Core Design posted a message on their official homepage clarifying things, the message reads thus:

“Following speculation on the internet, we would like to offer the following clarification.

The video of Tomb Raider: 10th Anniversary Edition that appeared on certain sites was an unauthorised release of an internal presentation of a game that was being developed by Core Design until very recently. It was running on PSP and used a Core-developed engine. However, following a recent review this project has been officially cancelled by SCi.

Core is alive and well and working on some great new projects, and we are still planning to announce some exciting news very soon!

Dang, shoot, poop and darn! That game looked good! Hopefully we’ll be hearing more from Core on just what they’re up to (thev’re piqued our interest). Until then I guess we’ll just have to snuggle our teddy bears close at night and hold on to what would have been.
