Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light exploring iDevices tomorrow

New Zealand's iTunes App Store revealed Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad well before the game's official announcement in North America -- a tweet from Crystal Dynamic's global brand director Karl Stewart soon after confirmed its veracity. The game will arrive tomorrow for $6.99 (iPhone) and $9.99 (iPad), and its content is said to be unchanged from the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network game released to critical fanfare earlier this year.

Two-player co-op is included, and both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth options will be at your disposal. As far as the recently released DLC for the game is concerned, however, it's not clear whether or not it'll end up on the App Store version -- we've asked Crystal Dynamics to clarify [see below].

Lara and Totec's now mobile adventure will be available to North Americans starting tomorrow morning at 12:01AM EST.

Update: A Crystal Dynamics representative confirmed that the DLC from Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network iterations of the game is not included with the iOS version.

wonder if the Ipad users are going to have to beta test this game just like we had to do... :P

That's not a completely fair criticism. The online portion of the game wasn't broken at launch, it just wasn't included.

@Lerkero ok, sorry i correct......I wonder if they are going to get a full game instead of half game at full price just like us..... :P

@Lerkero

Have you played the online co-op? Even when gameplay goes smoothly, the game doesn't even register diamond/health/ammo pickups until a few seconds have occurred. They still haven't given passable online to consumers.

It was great on the 360, and it seems like a great fit for iOS. Hope it does well.

I hope it supports 2nd gen Touch. I haven't been able to upgrade to 4th quite just yet and it seems Santa won't be helping me out any time soon. :P
