Digital ‘Tomb Raider Collection’ Gets Nintendo Switch Release Date — Physical Release Being Considered

The Nintendo Switch is about to get a new adventure with the confirmed arrival of the Tomb Raider Collection from Feral Interactive. It features two beloved games of the franchise, which deliver Lara Croft's adventures to the Switch platform, centering on two role-playing isometric games from the developers.

However, this release is about the digital copies of the games, which gamers may now opt to preorder before its release later this month, with physical copies tentative for release.

Tomb Raider Collection Is Coming for the Nintendo Switch

The back-to-back games from the franchise are coming on the Nintendo Switch soon, with Feral Interactive confirming the Tomb Raider Collection dropping for the portable console later this month.

The collection would feature two games, including "Lara Croft: The Guardian of Light" and "Lara Croft: The Temple of Osiris." Feral Interactive calls this "The Lara Croft Collection," with the team dropping the games on June 29 for the Nintendo Switch.

It will be available for $24.99 for the bird-view RPG games, with digital copies that gamers can purchase and download via the Nintendo eShop. It will feature its famed arcade combat in the game, including a 4-player co-op that it introduces with this Switch release.

Feral Interactive: Physical Copies are Tentative

Gamers can already preorder this new game via the Nintendo eShop, with its release coming in less than two weeks.

While it is currently planned to be a digital release, Feral Interactive replied in a tweet that it is considering a physical release for the awaited collection. The game was unveiled in 2021, but it took until this year to release it.

Tomb Raider's Franchise

Tomb Raider is one of the most iconic games in the industry, and its franchise is one of the most significant series there is to gaming, being almost 30 years in the business.

It was an iconic addition to Sony's original PlayStation console, alongside the likes of "Crash Bandicoot," "Final Fantasy," "Silent Hill," "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater," and more.

An iconic remake of the first games of the franchise was recently developed by OpenTomb, making the game in the first-person view of the heroine and made available in browsers.

It also featured higher frame rates than its previous versions, meaning that gamers would get a chance to experience this differently from before.

Lara Croft may have had her stories and adventure told in various adaptations and even in modern revamps of the series. However, a journey to old titles may bring back the nostalgia and joy of venturing as the famed British archaeologist.

"The Lara Croft Collection" is coming soon for the Nintendo Switch, but those looking for physical copies would have to wait, as it still depends on the developers' decision if they would release it.
