MEAGAN: Yes, Rise wouldn’t be here without the games that made the foundation and established this incredible formula of puzzles, combat, traversal, and traps. It’s an honor to be a part of a franchise that has been around for this length of time and is so well respected for this length of time.
We had to look at that as not just being about Rise. It was the 50 best and to be number 18 is fantastic. What does it mean to you all guys from Crystal especially with this special version coming out? Rise of the Tomb Raider was crowned by "TIME" as one of the 50 best games of all times. I laughed because we said it was about an hour of new story content, but as a Tomb Raider fan, I’ll be in there for about 2 or 3 hours just looking at everything. True Tomb Raider fans were walking up to every little space and painting and looking at everything in detail. There were people who audibly laughed because they were giddy being able to see and inspect everything. Seeing everybody’s face light up when they put it on was incredible. I think it was the first consumer hands on and eyes on. MEAGAN: Yes, and very recently, as Alex should know, we had a chance to go to Spain and we showed VR in Spain. Then to be able to put VR in that space and be able to walk through that space through Lara’s eyes has been a blast. We were first figuring out how are we going to celebrate 20 years of Tomb Raider, what’s the right thing to do… we planned to do the manor pretty early on. Being able to make VR work and put VR in the manor is really exciting. WILL: Yeah, I mean it’s been fantastic to be able to work on the new technology. MEAGAN: So this question is actually pretty subjective, but we (Will and I) actually agree that VR is pretty incredible.
