Shadow of the Tomb Raider in ROTTR?

NumLock21

I recently decided to buy the game Rise of the Tomb Raider and started playing it. Then I paused and noticed at the bottom left corner a message announcement about Shadow of the Tomb Raider along with a future reveal and release date. Rise of the Tomb Raider came out way before Shadow of the Tomb Raider was even announced. So was that message ever there before or did they some how have the ability to inject new product announcements into an existing game?

hmm... that's interesting. So they added that message through a game patch?

Nah the Apps are catching up on the trend. Games like CoD for example have this feature for years already.

it was likely patched in on March 15th when they made the announcement

The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again.
