Franchise Hub
Tomb Raider
The action-adventure series that made Lara Croft an icon — from 90s polygon puzzles to the modern Crystal Dynamics reboot trilogy.
Tomb Raider is one of the few 1990s franchises that has remained genuinely relevant across three console generations. The original game put Lara Croft on magazine covers and sold the PlayStation to a generation of players. Legend, Anniversary, and Underworld modernised the formula. The 2013 reboot reinvented it again as a cinematic action-adventure with stealth and survival mechanics that influenced much of the genre that followed.
With a new Tomb Raider in development at Crystal Dynamics — this time on Unreal Engine 5 under Amazon's publishing umbrella — the franchise is entering another rebuild moment. The hub covers the classics, the Crystal reboot trilogy, and what the next entry is being positioned to do.
