A New ‘Tomb Raider’ Game Will Be Released by Amazon Games
Lara Croft is swinging back into action — this time with Amazon.
Amazon Games and game studio Crystal Dynamics, developer of the long-running “Tomb Raider” franchise, announced an agreement.
Under which Crystal Dynamics will develop a new multiplatform title in the series, with Amazon Games “providing full support and publishing the game globally.”
For now, details are sparse: The next “Tomb Raider” game doesn’t have a name or target release date.
The companies said it will be a single-player, narrative-driven adventure that “continues Lara Croft’s story”
It will be set in an environment “that rewards exploration and creative pathfinding, with mind-bending puzzles to solve, and a wide variety of enemies to face and overcome.”
Crystal Dynamics is developing the game on Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 5.
“’Tomb Raider’ is one of the most beloved IPs in entertainment history,” Christoph Hartmann, VP of Amazon Games, said in a statement.
