Lara's ability to sprint, present in the three previous entries in the series, is only available when the player opens a cabinet containing gas masks in the 'Galleries Under Siege' level. Lara can also sneak up on enemies and perform stealth attacks, flatten herself against walls and peer around corners. Her new moves include a small hop, army-crawling, hand-to-hand combat and a "super-jump" that can be performed while running. The majority of Lara's basic moves are carried over from the previous instalment, such as walking, jumping, climbing, swimming, crawling, swinging on ropes and standard gunplay. Players control the main series protagonist Lara Croft throughout the majority of the game. Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness, like previous Tomb Raider games, is a third-person action-adventure puzzle game. In the aftermath of the game's release, the planned trilogy of games was scrapped, and the development of the franchise was transferred to Crystal Dynamics for the next entry in the series, Tomb Raider: Legend (2006). However, development was fraught with difficulties, which led to the game being delayed twice and numerous planned sections of the game were scaled back in order to meet deadlines.ĭespite selling 2.5 million copies worldwide, Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness received generally negative reviews from critics while some praise went to its narrative, critics faulted the game for its poor controls, camera and numerous technical issues. It was also planned to be the first in a new trilogy of Tomb Raider games released for the new generation. The intention was to create a different game from previous entries in the franchise, one that could compete better with newer action games and fully exploit the potential of the sixth generation of gaming platforms. The game's development began three years before its release. The gameplay follows series tradition, with Lara navigating platforming environments while incorporating stealth and character growth elements. Acting as a direct sequel to Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation and Tomb Raider Chronicles, the storyline follows Lara Croft as she attempts to clear herself of being the suspect of her former mentor Werner Von Croy's murder while investigating the activities of a black magic cult. A Mac OS X port was developed by Beenox and published by Aspyr the same year.
Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness is a 2003 action-adventure game developed by Core Design and published by Eidos Interactive for PlayStation 2 and Microsoft Windows.
