First Tomb Raider_ Underworld DLC Coming February 10th

The first of two new chapters in the Lara Croft saga comes exclusively Xbox 360 next month, as Eidos announces a February 10th release date for the Tomb Raider: Chronicles Beneath the Ashes DLC.

First announced back in October of last year and originally slated for a December release, Beneath the Ashes finds Lara returning to the ruins of Croft Manor to discover a massive series of caverns and crypts located underneath the rubble. While rummy best I am not sure what happens next, I am positive it doesn’t involve Batman – but I want it to.

Not seeing a price on this in the press release though…just an indication that the codes for the pack will also be available rummy mars at GameStop, which is nice for those of you who enjoy the whole going outside thing.

The second DLC pack, Lara’s Shadow, will launch a month later on March 10th.
