Tomb Raider Trilogy Coming to PlayStation 3 in March

Earlier this week developer Crystal Dynamics confirmed that The Tomb Raider Trilogy will be released for PlayStation 3 in March. The collection will include remastered, high-definition versions of Tomb Raider: Legend and Anniversary, as well as Tomb Raider: Underworld, which was originally released in HD for the PS3. Format: BluRay. Price tag: $39.99/€29.99. Dates: March 22 for North America, March 25 for Europe.

The trilogy pack will also include some exclusive bonus content: a Tomb Raider theme pack, Lara Croft and Viking Thrall avatar outfits (shown below), a collection of HD video trailers, and trophy support for Legend and Anniversary.

Although many PS3 players were hopeful that the Trilogy release would also include the Underworld expansion packs "Beneath the Ashes" and "Lara's Shadow," those Xbox 360 exclusives will not be coming to the PlayStation or PC in the foreseeable future. Crystal Dynamics Global Brand Director Karl Stewart has confirmed this via Twitter.

  1. Looks nice. If I ever get a PS3 I'll pick this up. Would be nice to see all three games done in HD. Too bad those Underworld levels don't come with this re-release. They were pretty good, especially Lara's Shadow. I'm sorry that non-xbox gamers won't get to play them.

  3. This reminds me of how I got TR's 1, 2, and 3. A Christmas present of the original trilogy of them. Too bad they didn't contain the extras like UB the other two. That, and they were the sold out software versions.

  4. Oh, yes, good, I love this :o I had the Legend and Anniversary games for the PS2, and the Underworld also to the PS2. And I always wanted to try the PS3 version, but I didn't have one at the time. Thank god I didn't buy the PS3 version, now I get three games, with lots of trophies and HD versions, THANK YOU :D
