Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis Developers Showed Egypt - Familiar Places Have Changed

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis will feature an updated Egypt with recognizable locations from the original 1996 game, which the developers will supplement with new details and story elements.

Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog presented new material on the creation of the remake. According to the authors, any fan of the series should immediately recognize Egypt, although some places will receive creative changes that will help expand Lara Croft's story.

The studios want to preserve the atmosphere of the original with huge tombs, temples, and mysteries related to mythology and fictional elements of the world, while simultaneously utilizing the capabilities of modern technologies.

Narrative Director Jon Stafford calls Egypt Lara's next step into the unknown. According to him, the heroine will discover that much older and more mysterious secrets are hidden behind the familiar history. The developers especially recommend exploring locations with a flashlight in hand.

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis will be released on February 12, 2027, on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2.
