Tomb Raider Anniversary Wii Revealed

Posted by Steve Van Neil Categories: Action, Adventure, Nintendo, Wii,

In this promotional trailer for the Wii version of Tomb Raider Anniversary, Producer Morgan Gray demonstrates some of the game’s Wii-specific motion controls.  Using their Wiimotes, budding Lara Crofts will be able to “touch the game world for the first time.”  Not in that way!  No, instead players can use the controller as a pick-axe to remove obstructions or as a brush to clean off artifacts.  Wiimote-specific control schemes for the various puzzles and combat sequences are obviously a given.  All in all, this brief peek hints at motion control mechanics that are surprisingly well integrated with the core Tomb Raider gameplay.  Gamers are understandably wary of some of these quickie PS2/PSP-to-Wii ports, but Tomb Raider Anniversary is one to keep an eye on.

Eidos has not given official word on a release date for the game besides “Coming Soon,” but we’re guessing it will hit in time for the holidays.
