Hello everybody, welcome to a exploratory ball of dude suit. I probably already used that one

I don't even know. We are joined by Brian from Crystal Dynamics who is the game director on Rise of the Tomb Raider.

Everybody? Hi Brian. Hi guys.

Alright, let's come back here. You look forward to the board.

Alright, alright, I will look forward to it.

You play video game. So what segment are you going to show us from Rise today?

So we figured you know it's Rise of the Tomb Raider what better piece of content to show the

than a tomb. So Rise of the Tomb Raider is a commitment to bring Lara back to the tombs and this is the first one to get into it.

She's looking so hot right now.

Well she just recently had an encounter with Trinity and to set up where she's at, a helicopter has shot down her jeep or jeep

turned crashed and now she's slid down a mountain and she's at the precipice of discovering this tomb.

So there's already stakes and a threat on her way to find the profits tomb.

Did the tombs kind of take the same mechanical world they did and I don't want to see the original Tomb Raider but the most recent Tomb Raider

where essentially it's this side puzzle based exploration thing and then you get some kind of really cool upgrade at the end of it.

Yeah well this is one of our primary tombs so every single tomb is going to have a reward of some kind.

This one actually has a big narrative payoff as well as some exploration that you're going to be able to do within the tomb itself.

We're going to learn a new translation system and there's a number of things that we introduced in this tomb.

But every single tomb is going to have at least a narrative payload further the story or it's going to have a really cool upgrade.

And in this time every single one of our challenge tombs has a skill that is an ancient skill something that makes sense that you'd find in an old space that she'll add to her arsenal.

So it's a pretty cool method to deliver new cool stuff.

Very cool.

When it comes to doing sequels because I know when the first game came out it was like it was met with like a bunch of different types of criticism
