this is pretty much known by now. anybody can tell this is a timed exclusive.

 

“Our partnership with Microsoft on ‘Rise of the Tomb Raider’ does have a duration, but we aren’t discussing those details at this time and are focused on collaborating to deliver a great game on Xbox One and Xbox 360,” a Square Enix representative told us via email. For those of you on PC and PlayStation systems, your hope of playing Rise of the Tomb Raider on other systems lives on.

 

i mean come on, its obvious its coming to PC and PS4. im predicting it will be canned on 360 and PS3 as well. just making it PS4, Xb1 and PC



360, xb1 and then pc, ps4.  i think ps3 will be dropped.



Around the Network

Both tomb raider and street fighter 5 will come out on Xbox one n ps4!



Duration. Meaning in 3-4 months it will hit PC

It's not like Microsoft saved Rise of the Tomb Raider from going to the graveyard, it's only launching first on XBox One and 360 next holiday, so it'll probably be out on PS4, PC and PS3 within a few months after that.

PC and Playstation have a long standing history with the franchise, it's like saying Final Fantasy could be an exclusive on Xbox, it would destroy SE's reputation if they don't at least release the game on PS4 and PC.
PS3 is a huge audience to ignore as well consider the game sold more on that platform than anywhere else.



I'll be buying this one on PS4.



Around the Network

Still, some people believe it wont come to PS4



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

I'm still trying to figure out why this game is crossgen when it's launching holiday 2015.


To ensure sales despite low XBONE userbase.(Actually every next gen console will still have a low userbase by then)



The duration better be more than a week or two. :P

What if the duration is two weeks but they can't announce before Xbone version releases ?
