Tomb Raider hasn’t said its last word yet and the franchise should give us news soon, the date is set! The icing on the cake is that it’s happening very quickly!

The latest game, apart from the excellent compilation of the first three games, is Shadow of the Tomb Raider from 2018, the same year that the last film in the series is released.

Lara Croft will return soon
A new Tomb Raider game is currently being developed by Crystal Dynamics. We don’t know anything about the game at the moment, except that it is designed to bring everyone together, fans of old and new TR. It is also moving quite a bit on the big and small screen. A major live-action series from the pen of the talented Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag) is currently in production. Rumors in the corridors promise us that a real universe is to be created around Lara on the small and even big screen, we will see.
Finally another series TRthis time animated, will soon be released on Netflix with a Lara played by actress Hayley Atwell (Agent Carter in the MCU). The series would obviously be set after the events of Shadow of the Tomb Raider and would therefore be a priori canon.
