Amazon is publishing the next Tomb Raider game, but many fans aren't sold on the idea.
Yesterday, Tomb Raider fans were given the news that the next instalment in the popular treasure-hunting series will be published by Amazon Games. A joint press release from the company and Crystal Dynamic certainly talked the talk, promising a "confident and multidimensional hero Lara Croft in an environment that rewards exploration and creative pathfinding" alongside "mind-bending puzzles to solve, and a wide variety of enemies to face and overcome". Yet Amazon's involvement in the series has fans divided.
Reacting to the announcement on the Tomb Raider subreddit, some fans think having the backing for such a huge company can only be a good thing for the series, "It's so exciting!" says user MaggieEsmeralda. An equally thrilled xdeltax97 comments, "It's definitely a very impressive announcement, I cannot wait for whatever they have in store!"
Others also admit to being "hesitant" about the Amazon publishing partnership, including user _MaZ_, who writes, "Just hope they don't lay a finger on where the game should go and let Crystal do their job."
