Apart from the announcement no other information has been given at this time. Will it be a new reboot or the sequel to the last trilogy which saw a new Lara? One thing is certain: using Epic's latest graphics engine promises to be unprecedented. Like the demo of Matrix wakes upUnreal Engine 5 beats the competition in terms of photorealistic rendering.

Crystal Dynamics is currently helping The Initiative on the upcoming Perfect Dark, so it may take us a little while to see Lara's new adventure.
