Today, Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix announced Lara Croft and the Guardian of Life. The press release, however, did not state which platforms the game is in development for. The only detail shared is that it “will be released via digital download in 2010.” As we know, Nintendo has their own downloadable services in WiiWare and DSiWare. I don’t really expect the game to land on DSiWare, but WiiWare seems like a more realistic possibility. Information about the title will be revealed soon, but we’ll have to see if Lara Croft and the Guardian of Life ends up on the Wii or DS.

“We have something we’re in the process of lighting up right now that I can’t talk about but I’m super excited about. I don’t want to be too nebulous here, but fans of a certain franchise will be very happy.”

“And [Dark Void Zero is] selling, just for the record, very, very well. We’re actually really pleased. In some ways, it’s actually exceeding my expectations as to how it did, so we’ll actually be looking at some other opportunities. I’m not saying necessarily 8-bit focused, not even necessarily DSiWare-focused, but there’s some gained from learning that we take from Dark Void Zero and from Other Ocean in particular that turned out great.”

Mr. Svensson would not say anything about the mysterious downloadable title. The game may (or may not) be for WiiWare/DSiWare, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
