The Tomb Raider reboot launches in Autumn 2012, developer Crystal Dynamics has announced.

A new trailer for the game shown during Microsoft's E3 conference offered a first glimpse of what to expect from the game.

The sequence shown saw Lara trying to escape from a network of underground tunnels while being pursued by a feral local.

There were a few environmental puzzles to solve, some brief-but-brutal combat and some hammy voice acting.

After successfully crushing her pursuer beneath a giant boulder, she emerges into the open to the sight of ruined planes and ships.

We'll post the clip as soon as Crystal Dynamics makes it available.
