Seems that non-Xbox owners might not have to wait that long to play the "timed exclusive" Rise of the Tomb Raider after its planned November 10 launch on Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Today, Square Enix announced that a PS4 version of the game will be released in "holiday 2016," and a PC version is planned for "early 2016."
Square Enix and Microsoft made quite a splash when they initially announced Rise of the Tomb Raider as an Xbox exclusive last August. Days later, Microsoft's Phil Spencer clarified that the deal was actually a timed exclusive. "I didn't buy the IP in perpetuity," he said. Today was the first indication of just how long that exclusive timing might last.
Despite the announcement, Rise of the Tomb Raider could still act as a major attractor for the Xbox One during this year's holiday sales race; 2013's Tomb Raider reboot sold over six million copies across a number of platforms. Rise will also likely be the largest big-budget action-adventure available this holiday season now that PlayStation 4 exclusive Uncharted 4 isn't coming until early 2016.
