Ships Ahoy - Tomb Raider: Underworld

Eidos Interactive announces the release of Tomb Raider: Underworld, saying
the latest installment in the action/platformer series is now available in North
American stores for Windows, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, and DS. The game is
expected in Europe on Friday, the PlayStation 2 edition is to follow early
next year, and for those seeking a sample, a playable demo is also
available. While the game won't let you go to hell in a handbasket, word is
it will let you visit the underworld on a motorbike: "Tomb Raider:
Underworld(TM) seamlessly blends exploration, grand scale puzzle solving and
combat, taking players on an archeological journey to the ancient nether worlds
of the Mediterranean, Thailand, Mexico, the Arctic Sea and more. As fearless
adventurer Lara Croft, gamers uncover proof of the existence of the Norse
underworld and the mythical Hammer of Thor, and embark on a perilous journey
towards a forgotten power that, if unleashed, could lay waste to all of
civilization. Lara's latest adventure introduces scores of new capabilities and
state-of-the-art gear, including an active sonar map, multi-purpose grapple and
an all-terrain motorbike. With fresh moves that are more intuitive and realistic
than ever before, players must master these in order to navigate through
treacherous environments and defeat a range of hostile enemies."
