Redditor accidentally discovers name of new Tomb Raider game
Professional game developers and marketers would highly benefit from pieces of advice coming from experts on confidentiality: that they must be extra careful and vigilant whenever they're taking the subway with huge crowds.
That was in relation to a recent incident involving a Redditor with the username Tripleh280, who experienced something rather unusual while taking the Montreal subway. He wrote on Reddit that he accidentally peeped on a laptop screen that shows what could be the final name of the upcoming Tomb Raider game, Kotaku News has reported.
Tripleh280 noted that a closer look at the screen would reveal the name "Shadow of the Tomb Raider," which was also floated as a possible name of the next installment of the series that features the iconic Lara Croft.
Moreover, Tripleh280 said that a source verified for him that what he saw back in the subway was indeed the name of the new Tomb Raider game. The name absolutely suits the last two games Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider. But of course, unless an official announcement is made, everything's still subject to change. But as far as the people concerned can tell, this discovery is the real deal.
At the moment, there was no respond yet from Square Enix to a request for comment. In addition, Tripleh280 told the source that the page on the laptop screen talked about visuals.
Meanwhile, according to Tech Times, Tripleh280 said that he's from Montreal, Quebec, and that he came across his intriguing discovery while heading towards downtown for work. He added that he would really love to see more apart from the title, yet the rest on the screen was blurred from his direction.
Fans may have to wait for a bit, however. There's an ongoing debate on whether the next Tomb Raider installment will be developed by San Francisco-based Crystal Dynamics, or Eidos Montreal, which developed games such as Thief and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.
Coincidentally, Eidos Montreal is just in a short distance away from Ubisoft Montreal which, whose employees accidentally disclosed Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag three years ago while on an airplane.
Stay tuned for more updates - another Redditor may just report seeing Dragon Age 4 while on a cruise ship next time.
