Aspyr's remasters of Tomb Raiders 1-3 werewell received when they released last year, giving Core Design's foundational 3D action-adventures a graphical spit 'n' polish and a modernised suite of controls.
But for the upcoming remaster of Tomb Raiders 4-6, Aspyr is going further, bringing back several features that were cut from the final game in that trilogy: Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness.
Revealed in ablog post on the Tomb Raider website (viaEurogamer) These restorations cover several different areas of the game.
For starters, Aspyr's remaster restores a weapon wielded by Kurtis Trent, the second playable character in The Angel of Darkness.
Named the Chirugai, this is a melee weapon that resembles the Glaive in middling eighties sci-fi filmKrull, a metal disc with blades sticking out the circumference.
