Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition will be joining the list of anticipated next-gen game releases after Square Enix announced that the game would be released on Xbox One and Playstation 4 game consoles in January 2014.

The game, which will be marked with a starting price of $59.99, will run at native 1080p after getting "re-built specifically for next gen consoles."

Tomb Raider games have been a staple in the gaming industry for several decades since it emerged in the mid 1990s as an exciting new free-range video game where gamers had the ability to complete a variety of objectives in the wilderness. The game series turned into a movie and the main character, Lara Croft, is brought to real-life in the film starring Angelina Jolie. The first of the two Tomb Raider films became the highest-grossing film to ever adapt to a video game in the United States,

Tomb Raider became even more popular after the movies came out. Thanks to the two films, people are anticipating the game even more ahead of the early 2014 release.

"Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is so named as it's exactly what we've custom built for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 system consoles," executive producer Scot Amos said to IGN.com. "The new hardware let us finally express the original vision in all of its glory. This was a continued labor of love. We pulled the game apart and rebuilt it with painstaking detail to add enhanced visual storytelling but without changing the award winning tale. The end result is a cinematic living world. We can't wait for fans and newcomers alike to experience this rebuilt epic adventure."

The next-gen game is sure to impress, but even the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions enjoyed high scores by the critics as well. Keza Macdonald said in a review for IGN that the game had a slow beginning but that it soon came into form as the game that everyone has loved over the years.

"Over the course of the game we see this intelligent, resourceful young woman become something closer to the Lara Croft we know, fearless in the face of danger," Macdonald said. "It is a greatly successful origin story, a series reboot that feels both authentic and hugely exciting."
