The creators of Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris (http://joystiq.com/tag/lara-croft-and-the-temple-of-osiris) can't have forgotten the sour note in the choir of praise around the previous game: Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light (http://joystiq.com/game/lara-croft-and-the-guardian-of-light) launched without online co-op, which was added weeks later in a patch (http://www.joystiq.com/2010/10/26/free-lara-croft-and-the-guardian-of-light-dlc-arrives-oct-27-on/). That won't happen again, I learned in a meeting with Crystal Dynamics this morning.

The custodians of all things Croft are planning to have online co-op ready to go when the game arrives ("soon") on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. Single-screen top-down tomb raiding also returns, of course, now with a diverse cast of four playable characters: Lara Croft, a rival explorer named Carter Bell and two imprisoned Egyptian gods, Horus and Isis. The game will support a mixture of local and online players that make up the adventurers, and can also be completed solo.

You can read more in our preview (http://www.joystiq.com/2014/06/12/lara-croft-and-the-temple-of-osiris-doesnt-mess-with-success/), which calls the Temple of Osiris another exciting venue for the older Ms. Croft, once again played by Keely Hawes (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0369954/).
