The last mainline Tomb Raider game was 2018's Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and after spending a few years in video game purgatory, Lara Croft is coming back in two new games. At The Game Awards 2025, Amazon Game Studios announced that Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis will reimagine of one of the hero's early adventures in 2026, and Tomb Raider: Catalyst will continue the series in 2027.
