Now i haven't had much chance to read through them, but i caught the words "Action Survival" for genre, and by the looks of her designs and such, i can see what they mean by it.

It is, however confirmed to be a complete reboot of the entire brand, and there is no real "model" for lara at the moment. She's also aged 21. I'm guessing this may mean things to some, no idea to me.

I'll add more details as i find em, sounds nice though at the moment.
 
Looks much better.

The redesigned character model, the blood and the dirt and everything. Was never that big a fan of Lara but they've certainly learned how to turn me on.
 
Oh wow. I never even knew this was happening. It looks like Uncharted. Also, what's going on with the Crystal Dynamics games then?
 
i was gonna post this all in me own words, but due to studying, a quick quote C&P will do the trick:

- Lara is 21 in this game

- It’s not only a reboot of the franchise but a reboot of the entire brand. As a result there will be no “real” Lara model this time

- They’re doing performance capturing with this game

- There are brutal deaths in the game this time. One is described as a deranged man stabbing Lara in the chest and then closing her eyes after she’s dead. Another includes a boulder falling on her leg to trap her before another falls and crushes her head

- Crystal Dynamics won’t talk specifics on weapons but concept art shows a bow, shotgun and pistol

- The lock on targeting system is gone and it now has a free aim system. CD says that it can compete with any of their competitors

- “I think that the major difference between this game and the old is the concept of smoke and mirrors,” begins Darrell Gallagher, the studio head at Crystal Dynamics. “There was an illusion of freedom because of streaming and loading that would pop you out in a different location, but this is absolutely real. You can literally go any direction that you see and carve your own way to the finish line instead of being guide.”

- “It was important in the game to not only deliver the character arc of Lara Croft emotionally, but to deliver it in gameplay as well so the player gets to grow into a hardened survivor,” says experienced director Noah Hughes. As the game unfolds, Lara will scavenge new tools and gear that augment her abilities. Lara’s athletic prowess will also evolve. Some areas begin inaccessible due to physical limitations or scarce supplies. With the right skills and gear, however, the island is Lara’s for the taking

- There are base camps in the game. Here you can combine items to create something new and access a skill system to upgrade Lara’s abilities. You’ll also be able to use base camps to fast travel to different locations to minimize backtracking

- You’ll need to gather food and water in order to survive

- There are humans in the game, including some of the crew members from the shipwreck off the coast of the island
