New Tomb Raider 4 revealed in Crystal Dynamics

It became known that the developers from the Crystal Dynamics studio are working on a new part of the popular Tomb Raider game series, after Marvel's Avengers.According to the job advertisement, Crystal Dynamics is looking for a lighting designer with extensive experience working on AAA games. As it became known Gamebomb.ru the studio has several AAA projects that it is currently working on, but the announcement contains a specific request to the candidates.

The main requirement for hiring is to match the style of the rebooted Tomb Raider games, especially the first and second parts, since these games were developed by Crystal Dynamics. And since the announcement mentions the Tomb Raider franchise by name, it looks like a new Tomb Raider 4 is in development. Crystal Dynamics did not work on the third game of the franchise and despite the fact that the game Shadow of the Tomb Raider did not receive bad reviews, it was not rated as well as the first two games.

Crystal Dynamics has stated in the past that a new Tomb Raider 4 game is in development, but not in the active stage. This announcement may mean that production is starting to gain momentum or is already in full swing. The reboot of the Tomb Raider trilogy has been crowned with success, bringing the classic video game franchise into the modern era. Although Shadow of the Tomb Raider had a fairly open ending, many fans decided that the game would be the last part of the rebooted franchise. But it looks like Crystal Dynamics is hiring employees to create Tomb Raider 4.

According to the source, it was recently announced that Crystal Dynamics will help in the development of a new game Perfect Dark. Very little is known about the project, but it will have some similarities with the Tomb Raider reboot, as Perfect Dark periodically switches to a third-person view. Nothing is known about the new Tomb Raider 4 yet and the game has not been officially announced yet.
