Amazon's Tomb Raider And LOTR Game Reveals 'Not Too Far Away,' Says Exec
Amazon.com Inc's (NASDAQ:AMZN) Amazon Games has been steadily progressing with its plans for two major gaming projects: Tomb Raider and The Lord of the Rings.
亞馬遜公司（納斯達克：AMZN）的Amazon Games正在穩步推進其兩個主要ARVR遊戲項目的計劃：古墓麗影和指環王。
Progress on the Next Tomb Raider Game
下一個古墓麗影遊戲的進展
In December 2022, Amazon partnered with Embracer Group ADR's (OTC:EBCRY) Crystal Dynamics to develop the next installment in the Tomb Raider series. Despite this announcement, specific information about the game's development has been sparse.
2022年12月，亞馬遜與Embracer Group ADR（場外交易：EBCRY）旗下的Crystal Dynamics合作開發了古墓麗影系列的下一個版本。儘管宣佈了這一合作，關於該遊戲的開發的具體信息卻非常有限。
Christoph Hartmann, Amazon Games chief, mentioned in an interview with Variety that a reveal is forthcoming: "It's not going to be tomorrow, but it's not too far away."
Amazon Games首席執行官Christoph Hartmann在接受Variety採訪時透露將會很快揭曉該遊戲：“雖然不會是明天，但也不會太久遠。”
Moreover, Hartmann stressed the importance of maintaining high standards for these games, adding: "It has to be triple-A quality, because the bar is so high."
此外，Hartmann強調了維護這些遊戲高品質的重要性，並補充道：“一定要達到AAA級別的質量要求，因爲標準非常高。”
The Lord of the Rings Development Update
指環王開發進展
Similarly, Amazon's collaboration with Embracer Group for The Lord of the Rings MMO was announced in May 2023. Details remain under wraps since its initial reveal.
同樣，亞馬遜與Embracer Group合作開發的指環王MMO於2023年5月宣佈。自首次公佈以來，細節仍然沒有公開。
Set in Middle-earth, the MMO (massively multiplayer online game) aims to explore narratives from The Hobbit and other tales within Tolkien's universe.
這款以《霍比特人》和托爾金宇宙中其他故事情節爲主題的大型多人在線遊戲（MMO）旨在探究中土世界的敘事主題。
Integrating Transmedia Strategies
整合跨媒體傳播策略
Beyond gaming, Amazon plans to synchronize its entertainment offerings. Prime Video will host adaptations such as the Tomb Raider live-action series and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
除了遊戲之外，亞馬遜還計劃同步其娛樂產品。Prime Video將推出古墓麗影真人劇集和指環王：權力之戒等改編內容。
Hartmann suggested that these projects do not necessarily need to be interconnected for success, drawing parallels to Sony Group Corp's (NYSE:SONY) approach with Marvel's Spider-Man.
Hartmann建議，這些項目不一定需要相互連接才能獲得成功，他引用了索尼集團公司（紐交所：SONY）在漫威蜘蛛俠方面的做法來做比較。
"It does not need to be always that everything is mingled together, but it's really one brand, which really just shows for me why transmedia nowadays is so important, and how games is such a vital part," he concluded.
他總結道：“不需要總是將所有內容混在一起，但這真的代表了爲什麼跨媒體現在如此重要以及遊戲是其中至關重要的一部分。”
