Crystal Dynamics is Developing the Next Tomb Raider Game
Lara Croft is returning as Amazon Games' Crystal Dynamics to develop the upcoming Tomb Raider game. The studio is developing the game using Unreal Engine 5 to create the most expansive and largest Tomb Raider game as of yet. The plans aim to have the game out within a few years and will be available across a wide range of different platforms. Currently, it is only in its early stages and it will retain all of the franchise's notable hallmarks.
The game will be a single-player game with "an environment that rewards exploration and creative pathfinding." Players will be solving many puzzles and battling a variety of enemies to continue building upon Lara's story instead of launching a new reboot.
