Tomb Raider: Survival and Collector's editions announced

9th Oct 2012 | 15:38

Square Enix has announced Survival and Collector's editions of Tomb Raider, while revealing pre-order incentives being offered by key retail partners in the UK and Ireland.

Releasing alongside the standard version, the Survival edition will contain the game, a mini art book compiled by art director Brian Horton, a double sided map of the title's island setting, a protective pouch, an access code to the soundtrack and a DLC weapon pack.

The Collector's edition will include all of the above plus a six inch Lara Croft figurine, and will come in "a unique Endurance crew member's metal survival box".

The series reboot was originally scheduled for an autumn 2012 launch, but developer Crystal Dynamics pushed the Tomb Raider release date back to March 5, 2013 in order to "fully deliver the very highest quality game".
