The special edition title - a updated version of the game that hit the Xbox One last year - comes with a new story chapter, new co-op endurance mode and in-game content honouring classic Lara Croft games features, but most exciting of all is that the title will be PlayStation VR compatible.

Developers Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix say the virtual reality mode will put players in control of Lara like never before.

Ron Rosenberg, co-Head of Studio at Crystal Dynamics, said: "This year we celebrate 20 years of the iconic Lara Croft. This provided the perfect opportunity for us to deliver a new Tomb Raider experience. "With the addition of PlayStation VR support, you can play the world through Lara's eyes for the first time in franchise history."

'Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration' will also be available on XBox One and PC players, but won't include the VR support that the PlayStation 4 version has.

Current Season Pass owners on Xbox One and PC will automatically receive the content for free, and then the existing Season Pass will be updated to include the new content. There is no Season Pass on PlayStation 4, as all of the content is included in the initial release.

Additional features also include a new online co-op expansion to Endurance mode lets fans raid tombs in a brutal wilderness together and at the special request of hardcore fans, the main game becomes even grittier with a brutal new "Extreme Survivor" setting
