Lara Croft is one of the most traditional video game characters and, despite the number of new franchises that the main developers in the world are launching, she is knowing how to hold on without many problems. However, the adventurer by definition could soon compensate users of its incomprehensible absence in one of the most successful machines: Nintendo Switch.
An equally adventurous Lara Croft
Lara Croft has been with us for almost 30 years. Specifically 27, since In 1996 his first video game was released for the consoles of the time.. PlayStation and SegaSaturn -in addition to PC- experienced an explosion of adventure that revolutionized the entire market and transformed this young lady into a real eminence when it came to living epic adventures. Those were the days before Nathan Drake, for example.
Now, besides those classic games, Lara has starred in some especially interesting titles that were put up for sale as a kind of spin-off or complement to the main adventures and that came to be more like titles like Devil –saving ARPG distances– than to their own tomb Raider of Eidos. And it is precisely those that we could see very soon on Nintendo Switch.
And it is that the Nintendo hybrid console, to this day, He has not received a visit from Lara, which could give even more importance to that rumor that has been resonating in recent times by which two of those classics are going to arrive very, very soon.
Guardians of light and other inventions
These two titles are neither more nor less than Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiristhat It has already been announced that they could arrive on Nintendo Switch in 2021, that the thing was delayed until 2022 and that now, thanks to an indiscretion, it seems that it will go on sale soon. There is no date, but the thing would be really warm and in the oven ready to be served.
These games enjoyed an isometric perspective, very different from the third-person perspective of the classics in the saga and focused much more on solving puzzles, fighting dozens of enemies and, above all, cooperation between players, who had to Beat stages by helping each other in some areas of the maps. Here, That of the platforms passed to a better life.
Unfortunately, Eidos left this line of Lara Croft games abandoned and never returned to them and we don’t really know what will happen in the future, since the brand ceased to belong to the company that operated them for more than 25 years. Now, in the hands of Amazon, it would be nice to know the plans that are on the table, apart from that release canonical It was revealed a few months ago.
This package would hit the market under the name of The Lara Croft Collection and has been sighted in the ESRB database, which is in charge of publishing the rating that a video game will have before reaching stores in the US. That is, the recommended age as well as any other note about violent, sexual or other content that should be warned in the future buyer. The equivalent of the PEGI that we have in the European Union for all the titles that come to our stores.
