Despite comments in the past that Tomb Raider: Legend would be released on Xbox 360 a short time after the game is launched on the current-generation formats, Eidos has today announced that the game will in fact be released for Xbox 360 on April 7th, the same day as the Xbox and PlayStation2 versions.

Announcing the release date of Tomb Raider: Legend on Xbox 360, Matt Gorman, Senior Brand Manager for Tomb Raider said, "Xbox 360 allows us to bring Lara to life like never before with intricately animated expressions, fluid movement and realistic abilities...It enables us to make the Tomb Raider experience far more realistic and immersive in a next-generation, high-definition world; dynamic, lush, living realms that are wholly Tomb Raider, and that belong completely to Lara Croft, the likes of which have never been seen on any console."

There's still no mention as to when Lara will be appearing on the PSP at the moment, but we'll have more details on that shortly...
