Karl Stewart, the global brand director of Crystal Dynamics revealed that there would not be a demo released for the new Tomb Raider. He announced the news earlier this week on his Twitter page.
"There are no plans to release a demo of the game pre-launch. We don't want to spoil the story..."

He hinted at a strong narrative in later tweets, which sound promising for the expectant fans; "We've weaved such a personal story we don't believe spoiling it by having you wait a week or so to play on." He also added that there would be "no season or online pass"
It's not all bad news for the fans, the television spot for the game has been released, with bonus content being offered for those who pre-order the game with certain retailers. These bonuses are retailer specific; with different outfits, bonus locations and puzzles. Pre-ordering from Amazon.com will get you exclusive Kindle Fire content, and an Amazon edition of "The Art of Tomb Raider" - a 32-page art book by art director Brian Horton.

With all of the new television spots and pre-order incentives, it serves as a nice reminder that it won't be too long until the game is released, and it's already been tipped to be the most hotly anticipated game of 2013. I for one can't wait to see it hit the shelves.
