One of the worst kept secrets in the past few weeks was the fact Rise of the Tomb Raider would be launching on PC sometime in January. Square Enix has now officially announced a 28th January, 2016 release date for the second game in the reboot of the series.
According to the publisher’s press release, the PC version adds Windows 10 support and 4K resolution. “The PC release of Rise of the Tomb Raider continues the positive momentum from our highly successful partnership and collaboration with Microsoft for the launch on Xbox One and Xbox 360,” stated developer Crystal Dynamics co-head Scot Amos.
The PC version of Rise of the Tomb Raider will be available through Steam, the Windows Store, Amazon.com and the Square Enix e-store. The Standard edition will cost $59.99, with a digital Deluxe edition for $89.99 that includes a Season Pass to nearly all current and future DLC.
There will also be a physical Collector’s Edition, which includes the Digital Deluxe version of the game, a 12-inch Lara Croft statue, replicas of Lara’s journal and jade necklace, and a steel case for $149.99. It is available only from the Square Enix e-store. The game will also have a brick-and-mortar retail release.
