In-Game Kurtis
How do the play mechanics differ with Kurtis? What were the key things you wanted to get across with him?
‘Sadly, we haven’t actually got as much in as we wanted to. We gave Kurtis psychic powers, so he’s got vision powers that allow him to see through stuff, he’s got like a mind-bending power, which he only uses a little bit but that’s something we’d like to explore going forward. We even thought about giving Kurtis his own game, actually; he’s a very cool character. So we were very conscious about not making him another Lara Croft, only a male version. So he has got his own characteristics and I don’t want to give too much away, but when you play him, you get a sense of that. He’s animated the same as Lara, but he’s got some nice, interesting twists.’
