The new Tomb Raider is finally ready to be launched, and is the highlight of this week’s PS3 releases. PlayStation fans can also look forward to MLB 13 The Show which should be hitting both the home console as well as the PS Vita. Other games lined up for a launch tomorrow include Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk, Bit.Trip Presents Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien, Fist of North Star 2 Ken’s Rage and more.
The Tomb Raider reboot, with its single-player and multiplayer components, has been grabbing a lot of attention ever since it was revealed for the first time. It looks to explore the roots of the iconic Lara Croft, by chronicling her early days as an explorer. The game’s story starts when a ship she’s on is wrecked, landing her on a remote island filled with mysterious happenings. She must now survive the anomalies on this island, while looking out for her friends who’re also trapped on it.
Even MLB 13 The Show launches this week, with its improved baseball offerings. It will be arriving for the PS3 in physical form, but for the Vita, both its digital as well as Game Card versions will be launched. Another interesting game to be coming out this week is Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk which is the fourteenth title in the Atelier series of JRPGs.
Besides, the much anticipated Bit.Trip Presents Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien is ready to hit the console via PSN as well. This rhythm-music platforming game has been filled with fresh environments, moves and soundtracks, says its maker. Fist of North Star 2 Ken’s Rage is another game slated to hit PSN tomorrow alongside Fuel Overdose, Germinator (also on PS Vita), Port Royale 3: Pirates & Merchants and free demos of Bit Trip Presents Runner 2: Future Legend of Rhythm, Knytt Underground (PS Vita) and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14.
Lastly, two of this week’s PS3 releases include PS2 Classics which come in the form of Midnight Club: Street Racing and Midnight Club II. All the PSN games that have been mentioned above should hit the service through tomorrow’s PS Store update.
