That "O" looks a little weird in Tomb.

Oh well.

Definitely a teaser though...

Looking forward to it. The jungle clip looks pretty awesome even if it was just a cutscene/cgi.

2013 reboot SUCKKKKKKKED
Havent finished Rise of the Tomb Raider but it is SOOOOO much better. Story/characters suck, but the openness and gameplay is really good.
Have barely seen anything from this but i enjoyed that short clip :)

I'll probably get this on an X as 4K support, will wait for more info though.

I was literally thinking about settings where the next Tomb Raider will take place and had either Mayan or Aztecs in mind. Seems about right.

Also, I'm not a native english speaker, but isn't this part kinda wrong?

All platforms will launch simultaneously on September 14, 2018.

Shouldn't it say that the game will launch on all platforms on September 14, 2018, instead of saying that the platforms will launch? Sounds so weird to me. lol

This is one of the worst teasers I've ever seen. 20 seconds of meaningless CGI? Wow...
Full reveal April 27th? Well... why not wait a bit more and do the full reveal right away?
Is this supposed to gather excitement for this full reveal? At least for me it does nothing :(

Mayan temples, really what more could you ask for? Those are perfect for the actual tomb raiding. Hopefully they listened to the criticism about the puzzles being too easy and made them more challenging, I'd love that.

As for their press release, it's curious that they mention X but not Pro. It's certainly an indication of who has the marketing deal and this means we will see X footage at E3 which makes me very happy.
