The wait for the next Tomb Raider has been long and while you’ll have to wait until 2027, it’s official – Lara Croft is back and in her biggest adventure yet with Tomb Raider: Catalyst. Launching in 2027 and developed by Crystal Dynamics, it sees a more confident Croft handily disposing of some foes. And don’t worry – her trust grappling hook returns as well.
Tomb Raider: Catalyst is coming to Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC with Amazon Game Studios serving as publisher. While its gameplay has yet to be showcased, the trailer does see Croft desperately navigating a collapsing tomb, wall-bouncing and clinging to massive terrain shifts. She quickly emerges to overlook an ancient city and it sure does lend credence to rumors that this could be an open-world title.
Stay tuned for more details on the Unreal Engine 5 title and announcements from The Game Awards. Thus far, we’ve seen a new Divinity, Control Resonant, Leon in Resident Evil Requiem and much more.
This announcement is exciting news for fans of the Tomb Raider series! It’s great to see the franchise continuing to evolve and expand. Looking forward to seeing what new adventures await in Catalyst!
