Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered received a pair of trailers today focusing on its new FlyBy Camera Maker and a video showing off outfits.
According to Aspyr, FlyBy Camera Maker is “a tool that empowers players to create their own dynamic, cinematic shots” as they can “map out a moving camera path through any scene, opening a world of creative possibilities.” Up to 20 cameras can be placed along a path. Shots can also be fined-tuned by scrolling through placed camera points and adjusting settings such as Roll, Field-of-View, Zoom, and movement speed.

What we could see in a potential February 2025 Nintendo Direct
Posted on 2 months ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments
Today, we’re looking at the potential announcements we could see if we were to get a final Switch-centered Nintendo Direct in February 2025.
At the time of writing, we don’t currently have any sort of confirmation that we’re actually getting a presentation next month. That said, we’re arguably due for one. Other than Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition, we don’t have any concrete release dates for remaining Nintendo Switch titles. We do know that Metroid Prime 4: Beyond launches sometime this year, but we’re still missing a defined release window. Additionally, if you remember the transition from the 3DS to the Switch, Nintendo continued to publish a number of ports on the dedicated handheld during Switch’s early years. We wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a similar approach here, and if it winds up being true, it means we might still have a remake or two bound for the original Nintendo Switch sometime this year.
