Rumor: Tomb Raider Undworld Rising Soon?

On November 21, 2007, video game developer Eidos Interactive filed to protect the trademark Tomb Raider Underworld in relation to a video game.

Currently, sites have been listing the game as Tomb Raider 8, in development by Crystal Dynamics.

The storyline is rumored to be based around the Mayan Calendar. During five nameless and dangerous days at the end of the calendar called Wayeb’, portals between the mortal realm and the Underworld dissolve, allowing ill-intending deities to causing disaster and mayhem.

Propheices, sounds like a great story for the upcoming Tomb Raider.
