Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris is receiving the collector’s edition treatment.
The Collector’s Edition, or “Gold Edition” as they’re naming it, will have a map of the overworld, an art book, and a 3 inch mini Lara Croft figurine. For getting the Gold Edition, you’ll also be given access access to the Season Pass. The online content will allow gamers to download DLC which includes new tombs, new costumes, new weapons, unique rings, and amulets.
There will also be pre-order incentives for Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, depending on which retailer you order from.
- GameStop will have the Lara Croft Legend Pack. It will give access or contain classic Tomb Raider skins, a golden pistol, and The Legend Ring which will regenerate health.
- Amazon will have the Deus Ex Pack. This pack will include Adam Jensen’s combat rifle and the Augmented Ring which will reduce the cost of treasure chests by 10%.
- Steam and other digital stores will have the Hitman Pack, which gives you Agent 47’s Silverballers (dual pistols), an Agent Ring which will give your weapons and bombs a damage boost.
Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris is the sequel to 2010’s Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. It will have 4 player drop-in-drop-out co-op, 4 player competitive, and is the first new Tomb Raider game in the current generation. The new game will not have any relations to the recent Tomb Raider (2013), or that game’s upcoming sequel, Rise of the Tomb Raider coming in 2015.
Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris will be hitting shelves on December 9th for the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. The UK will not have the Collector’s Edition for the Xbox One, and yet will have versions for PC and PlayStation 4. While it’s selling better over at the UK than over at the US, it is odd that the Gold Edition is not available there. There is a 3.84 million difference between PlayStation 4 and Xbox One with the PlayStation outselling Xbox One.
My Opinion:
Even though I never did get to finish the game, I really liked Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and I would like to playthe new game. However, I don’t have any interest in the Gold Edition. I might consider the Gold Edition for the right price, but for now I’ll just stick to the standard edition.
