ya but they will be Marketing Fallout 4 which comes out the same day. Not to mention Halo 5 a few weeks before.

Honestly its seems they got the timed exclusive to market it too show volume. So they can say things like The XB1 the only place you can Play Halo 5, Forza 6, and Tomb Raider this holiday.

The worse Tomb Raider does, the more expensive it's going to be to get any exclusives in the future.

They can't let it flop. Tomb Raider's sales will be the benchmarks developers use in the future to negotiate such deals.

It might explain why they ended the CoD deal. They went for Tomb Raider instead, a much more 'exclusive' deal and more worth money wise, in terms of CoD they have advertising deal plus DLC not an entire game.
