Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, initially anticipated for a 2023 release, has apparently been delayed to 2024 to make way for the highly anticipated GTA 6. This strategic move avoids direct competition with Rockstar's juggernaut. Fans of the Tomb Raider series will now have to wait a bit longer for their next adventure.
Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, the latest in the revered series, has revealed through its Steam page that AI was utilized in its development. Notably, any assets created with AI technology were either replaced or refined by human developers to ensure quality. This move sparks interest in the gaming community regarding the role of AI in game development.
Sony's summer State of Play showcased upcoming titles like God of War Laufey and Marvel's Wolverine, alongside a slew of September and October releases, strategically avoiding GTA 6's November 19 launch.
