Rise of the Tomb Raider is coming to PS4 and PC next year, Square Enix has confirmed.

The game will make its debut on Xbox One and Xbox 360 this November before arriving on PC in early 2016. A PS4 release will follow in holiday 2016, one year after the game’s Xbox launch.

Crystal Dynamics is leading development on Xbox One, PS4 and PC, with Nixxes heading up the Xbox 360 versions.

Confirmation follows almost a year of ambiguity over Rise of the Tomb Raider’s Xbox exclusivity, after it was announced at last year’s Gamescom that the game would release “exclusively on Xbox” in holiday 2015.

Xbox chief Phil Spencer later revealed that the game’s exclusivity had a duration, with Microsoft confirming in December that it would be publishing the game on Xbox One and Xbox 360. Publishing duties will – presumably – be handed back to Square Enix for the PS4 and PC release.

Rise of the Tomb Raider is the sequel to 2013’s franchise reboot, and sees Lara Croft searching Siberia for an ancient city.
