Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered Restores Cut Angel of Darkness Dialogue

The upcoming Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered will reportedly feature cut dialogue from both playable characters in Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness alongside its visual improvements and other content that was removed from the original game. It is unclear what exactly this new dialogue will contain, but according to developer Aspyr, the new lines will add more context to certain elements of the third and final title making up the Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered trilogy.

While the Tomb Raider franchise was a seminal staple of the PlayStation brand since its early days on the PS1, its first PS2 outing, Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness, released to largely negative reviews and led to a soft reboot. Fortunately for fans, the series won over critics and proved successful with its later iterations and thrives to this day as a result, with these original games now finally receiving upgraded modern-day ports.

Now, the controversial PS2 game is coming back with an array of upgrades in Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered, with the remastered Tomb Raider: The Angel Of Darkness seemingly adding some dialogue cut from the original version. While developer Aspyr has not stated exactly what this dialogue contains, a blog post on the series’ official site confirms that it will feature lines from both Lara Croft and Kurtis Trent, the game’s two playable characters.

Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered Will Bring Back Cut Content From The Angel of Darkness

In fact, the game’s secondary protagonist, Kurtis, is seeing some other major upgrades as well, including an expansion of his brief playable segment that will restore some of his combat abilities and moves. Now, alongside his ability to shoot around corners in the usual Tomb Raider fashion and utilize his psychic abilities to create shields, Kurtis can also wield the mythical blade Chirugai as a melee option.

All three games in the remastered trilogy will feature major visual improvements, higher frame rates, and modernized controls, giving players the option to switch between the original scheme and the newly modernized controls. The classic Tomb Raider games featured tank controls akin to Resident Evil, restricting players’ movements, while the remasters will offer a modern setup as an alternative and more streamlined method.

In any case, there is certainly no shortage of content for new or longtime franchise fans at the moment, with Lara Croft most recently appearing in Netflix’s Tomb Raider animated series last year. The PS2 classic Tomb Raider: Legend also saw a modern port on the PlayStation 4 and 5, which became part of Sony’s PlayStation Plus Premium catalog, giving fans another way to experience the series.
