You need to look at that Amazon listing again it clearly say by Microsoft under the title.

A quick google search will show you that MS is publishing the game.

excerpt from the article.

Xbox head of marketing, Aaron Greenberg, has confirmed that Microsoft is the publisher for Rise of the Tomb Raider on Xbox One.

The news was announced via Twitter when a user asked Greenberg who was publishing Rise of the Tomb Raider; Microsoft or Square Enix?

Although there are no details about what the arrangement entails – such as what elements of the game Microsoft is covering, be it marketing, development, or distribution costs – we reached out to Square Enix and received the following statement.

"Yes, Microsoft will be publishing Rise of the Tomb Raider on Xbox. Microsoft has always seen huge potential in Tomb Raider and they will get behind this game with more support across development, marketing and retail than ever before, which we believe will be a step in continuing to build the Tomb Raider franchise as one of the biggest in gaming."


Are you in any way, shape or form saying ROTR won't release on PS4?

What?!? No! what the hell?!? It was already confirmed that the PS4 would be getting the game a year from release date on the Xbox 1. I'm stating that MS helped with developmental cost (more that just marketing cost) and they are listed as the Publisher of the Game.

I also clarified my earlier post that comparing this to deal with Sony's Street Fighter 5 deal was wrong. Because Capcom seems to be the only company that keeps titles that have received outside funding to specific consoles with a PC release. Xbox1 got Dead rising 3, PS4 gets Street Fighter 5.
