Crystal Dynamics’ next Tomb Raider game has been in development since 2022, but fans have been left in the dust about any sort of indicator what we can expect.
Established film and TV insider V Scooper purposes on Twitter that the next game will set its sights on being an open world game set in India. It also sounds like driving motorcycles will be a mechanic. Supposedly a natural disaster strikes northern India and undiscovered ruins of King Ashoka are uncovered. Lara Croft is then thrust into a situation of racing against the Society of Raiders, a group inspired by the iconic adventurer while also being unaffiliated and having opposite agendas.

Fans can also expect to be able to use Croft’s parkour abilities to maneuver around the map. We know a few details, like how it’s going to be published by Amazon Games and that it’s in development with Unreal Engine 5, outside of that, though, not much else is confirmed.
