In case anyone fears it, it seems that in this case we have good news, since the new title of the Tomb Raider saga, recently confirmed by Crystal Dynamics, already has a distributor who finances it accordingly at a AAA+ at the strongest of the saga. Today we received confirmation that Amazon Games, the games division of the famous company, will be in charge of financing and distributing the article.
The studio and Amazon Games have confirmed it on the networks, but the most interesting thing is that for this Tomb Raider there will be no combat… between platforms, we mean. Because It will be a cross-platform title and being created in Unreal Engine 5, in all likelihood, this is only new generation. But that’s not all, because despite what you might think, the new adventures of Lara Croft will be as always: An adventure for a single player.
We are delighted to announce that @CrystalDynamics has partnered with @AMZNGameStudios about the next major entry in the Tomb Raider series, which will continue the saga of Lara Croft in a single-player, story-driven, cross-platform adventure. Amazon Games will support and publish worldwide! pic.twitter.com/Pn5aGeZaAm

This could be Amazon Games’ third big game
Since Crystal Dynamics was acquired by the Embracer group with Eidos Interactive, they have been very active, with the announcement of this Tomb Raider, the collaboration with The Initiative for the new Perfect Dark or the intention to bring other IPs known as Legacy of Kain, among others. It seems that without a doubt this outing was good for both parties.
And on the other hand, Amazon Games is benefiting from the success of its two MMO titles, Lost Ark and New World. Although they have not recovered the numbers they had at launch, they were considered consistent in terms of users and activity, suggesting that they will likely continue to gain users with each new release. interesting update.
