In a new interview with Inside Mac Games, Aspyr Media's Elizabeth Howard discussed some of the upcoming game developments gamers can expect from the company this year, including an App Store update for Civilization V: Campaign Edition and a Lion friendly re-release of Tomb Raider II. Howard also revealed that the company plans to bring Lion compatibility updates to owners of game versions other than those available on the Mac App Store.

I've noticed that Aspyr recently updated the Mac App Store version of Star Wars: Empire at War to make it compatible with Apple's 10.7 OS. What other older titles are slated for an update? Will gamers who purchased non App Store versions be able to access the updates as well?

EH: We intend on ensuring 10.7 compatibility with all of our Mac App titles. Some of the games released prior to Lion saw a few issues, hence the update for Star Wars: Empire at War. We hope to bring these fixes and updates to the non MacApp titles as well via patches in coming months.
