Tomb Raider: The Osiris Codex will be released in three parts, starting with ‘The Osiris Codex’ in the U.S. and Europe this autumn. It will be available through soon to be announced network operators and will feature heavily in their autumn marketing campaigns. The game has been created as a side-scrolling platform game. Lara can perform all of her signature moves, such as running, jumping, crouching and climbing. As she progresses, Lara can pick up useful items and store them in her inventory for later use. She can also push and pull certain items within the game, to gain access to otherwise unreachable areas. Lara will of course, have her trademark pistols to hand for when the going gets tough. Information on the game and network operators will be available from the game’s website www.tombraidermobile.com. The following Java-enabled mobile phones with colour screens will be supported: Sharp GX10, GX20, Nokia 3650, 7650, 7210, 6200 and Motorola T720. John Chasey, managing director of iomo says:
“Lara Croft is quite simply the biggest star of the video games world. We are delighted to extend our relationship with Eidos and bring Tomb Raider to mobile phones and a potential audience of millions of new gamers around the world.” Simon Protheroe, Eidos’ technical director says:
“We wanted to work with a developer who we felt understood the franchise and could translate Lara's world onto mobile technology as sympathetically as possible. Iomo have proven they understand the technology and have created a valuable new addition to the Tomb Raider franchise.”
