Dagger of Xian may not be fully available for years yet, but when it does launch it will be exactly as Nicobass intended it to be, with tacit approval from Crystal Dynamics. That freedom has enabled him to a ton of impressive work at his own schedule.
As such, he's mentioned that he will not be accepting any donations for the project. Nicobass has even gone so far as to say that he has spoken with Crystal Dynamics so as not to cross any lines and be shut down.
While it may not be Crystal Dynamics quality, it's very impressive for such a small team to accomplish. Just in the first cave of Dagger of Xian, players will see how impressive the game looks with lighting effects, water effects, reflections, fog, and of course HD visuals throughout.
Nicobass and a small team recreated all of the assets, animations, and content design from scratch using Tomb Raider 2 as a map. He's not just remastering Tomb Raider 2 with HD graphics.Īnd the result really should speak for itself. Nicobass is taking a full-on remake approach with Dagger of Xian, meaning he's creating what he believes would be Tomb Raider 2 if it was made in the modern era. But those who play the demo will immediately recognize that they are not quite the same. The Dagger of Xian demo features the "Great Wall" level of Tomb Raider 2, which is the game's first level. Nico has been working on this project for well over a year and a half, so to have a working demo as polished as what's been made available is extremely impressive. Project creator Nicobass has published the first demo for Dagger of Xian, a remake of Tomb Raider 2 built in Unreal Engine 4. Fans of the original Tomb Raider series have been hard at work putting together a remake of Tomb Raider 2 and now they're ready to share the results.
