Aspyr Media seem to be on quite a roll lately, as they've today not only announced Star Wars: Episode I: Jedi Power Battles for PC but also Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered as well! Continuing on from Aspyr's previous work in the Tomb Raider I-III Remastered collection that was released back in February.

Great chance for you to play through some games you may have missed, and of course with plenty of upgrades too. Hopefully another that will get Steam Deck Verified and work well on desktop Linux with Valve's Proton.

VI does not need only a remake, but it's a game to fully rebuild, the actual state is an unfinished project.

Because Tomb Raider I-III Remastered worked well on Proton, I can only assume the same for Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered.

Curious to what degree Aspyr can fix Angel of Darkness. Even though I started playing Tomb Raider back in 1996 (tank controls), I prefer the new modern keyboard + mouse controls. Hopefully, Aspyr implements something similar with the deviating AoD engine.

By the way, 'FreakRaider' spent half his life working on Angel of Darkness 1.5, so I wonder whether he is involved or in shock right now with this upcoming remaster.

Sweet. Too bad that that Chronicles and AoD are pretty much trash. I'm that old having played them back then, and I can tell that only the 4th one is worth replaying again for nostalgy. I don't wan't to experience nostalgic hate from back then against V+VI.

But tbh the 4th one is worth the price for me, and the ending broke my heart.
Wonder what they are going to do about the Jean-Yves issue. Maybe changed his name/likeness completely or maybe they've directly asked him about the remake.

While this may be cool for some people, I'm not really overly excited for this. Tomb Raider 4 and 5 (Last Revelation and Chronicles) are basically the same gameplay as 1,2,3 from what I can tell and they weren't exactly well received when they came out due to lack of innovation compared to their predecessors. So I don't really see the need to buy those 2 again to play them Remastered.
Tomb Raider 6 (Angel of Darkness) has received the Restoration Project which even adds full mouse look and controller support to the game. And there's also the Definitive Edition which focuses on remastered graphics. I played it for about 9 hours in this configuration and I honestly really liked it. It also works well on Linux with the exception of cutscenes.
So I'll probably pass on this remaster.

Steam gives me error when I try to add it to wishlist, so I guess I'll trust them and pass.

It's cool that they're continuing to do the remastered version of Tomb Raider 4-6 and I only played The Last Revelation on the PS1 back then but nothing really stood out from that one. By the time Chronicles and Angel of Darkness came out, I was out of gaming for a long period of time.

At least I remembered how horrible Angel of Darkness was on the PS2 when I watching a family member play it. Back then, those game magazines were hyping it up because Edios tried to make it like Metal Gear with the stealth elements and some other game mechanics that ended up not working very well.

I own the originals on steam so I gotta rebuy these but still nice they are giving them some small updates.

Though those last two might need more than a remaster and if the originals are still available to buy I dont think anyone would mind a few fixes.

I dont like to double dip too often so I'll wait for a good sale, maybe a complete bundle.

Wonder if they'll keep going and remaster the others even if they might not need it too badly.

The originals have horrible controls. Basically unplayable because of that. So if they fixed that, it's a reason to get them.

Quoting: SeegrasThe originals have horrible controls. Basically unplayable because of that. So if they fixed that, it's a reason to get them.
I find these games more difficult to play with the new, reworked controls as Tomb Raider was very deliberately built around its (also deliberate) tank controls, down to the distance of the hops, calculating the running jumps and such.

Even though I dislike some timed sections with the TR tank controls I think it really is a skill issue.
