Tomb Raider's New Game Announcement Possibly Coming

A fan account and speculator, Smash Lara, has shared a recent screenshot from the Tomb Raider website, which is said to be a hint for the next game its developers are currently working on.

In an X post, Smash Lara claimed that there was a report back in January 2023 that the team is working on a game that will be revealed this year.

The speculator claimed that as the summer season is ending, a significant update from the Tomb Raider website shows a different landing page for fans.

Crystal Dynamics: Allegedly Hinting a New Game

The speculators consider this as Crystal Dynamics' hint to the upcoming game that would center on Lara Croft, the main protagonist of the Tomb Raider franchise.

However, it is important to note that no official announcements or confirmations have been released pointing to a new game. Still, this may come as a perfect time, as the last Tomb Raider game was released in 2018, giving it five years to develop this new game.

The Tomb Raider Franchise

Tomb Raider and Lara Croft's story first became popular in 1996 during the release of its first game for the earlier consoles of its generation. However, in 2013, the game saw a reboot of the franchise with its titular Tomb Raider from Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics.

In 2016, it was speculated that the sequel game would be an Xbox exclusive, but it was later revealed that it would bring PC and PS4 availability later than expected.

This particular series of Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider ended in 2018 with the release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider, which proved to be an important trilogy for the entire gaming franchise.

With its iconic storytelling, graphics, quality, and experience, gamers get to be the iconic Lara Croft in an immersive experience. Five years since the last Tomb Raider game was released, some fans and insiders speculate on the next title from Crystal Dynamics to feature the famed explorer again in another game release.

This newsletter may mean many other things for the franchise and not necessarily a game, but it still could be a hint for a new title coming soon for all gamers.
