Phil Rogers, CEO of Square Enix America and Europe, has confirmed a sequel to the very popular and acclaimed "Tomb Raider" reboot which is now "well into development."
In an open letter, Rogers confirmed that a sequel has been in development for some time.
"I am also excited to reveal that we are well into development on a next-generation Tomb Raider sequel -- something you may have heard about recently," he wrote.
The rumor that a sequel was in the works leaked a couple weeks back with the announcement of a comic book that would bridge the gap between games. Writer of said comic book, Gail Simone, who is working with Dark Horse, said "In continuity, it will be Tomb Raider canon, and lead DIRECTLY into the sequel."
Head of product development and studios, Darrell Gallagher, at Square Enix added, "It's still early days, so I'm afraid I can't provide any further details for now save my assurance that we're not resting on our laurels and acclaim from Tomb Raider's recent successes, but working hard to raise the bar even higher and re-affirm the faith you've shown."
The "Tomb Raider" reboot was a critical and retail hit and it would only makes sense that Square Enix would follow up that success with a sequel in hopes of catching the same success.
