Lara Croft is one of the most recognisable video game characters of all time and is instantly familiar to those who have enjoyed the Tomb Raider franchise and even those who have never played a game in their lives.
With many young girls having Lara Croft as their first female main character growing up, she means a lot to many so it is no surprise that she continues to appear both inside and outside of the Tomb Raider franchise.
In the meantime, check out the trailer for Tomb Raider I-III Remastered below!

Since her inception in 1996, Lara has appeared in multiple Tomb Raider movies, games, and comic books but she has also starred in Rainbow Six Siege, Power Wash Simulator, Fortnite, Fall Guys, Dead by Daylight, and Call of Duty: Warzone to name but a few.
There is no denying the love for Lara Croft and now it seems as though she will be starring in yet another crossover and this is not one we would expect.
Shared to the official PlayStation Twitter account, tomb raiding will be teaming up with high-score chasing when two Lara-Croft inspired tables head to Pinball FX.
Arriving on 19 June to both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, a Tomb Raider inspired aesthetic will be added to the free-to-play arcade game, allowing players to get stuck into two tables inspired by Lara and her adventures.
The two new tables - Adventures of Lara Croft and Secrets of Croft Manor - will be instantly recognisable to hardcore Tomb Raider fans and give them the chance to head back to their roots, all whilst knocking balls around some tables.
“At their core, both Tomb Raider and pinball are about quick reflexes, careful planning, and that rush you get when you finally pull off the impossible,” the official blog post reads.
“Whether you’re dodging traps in a crumbling tomb or trying to save a ball rolling toward the drain, it’s that same exciting mix of precision and chaos.”
Better yet, Pinball FX is completely free-to-play so if you are feeling nostalgic for the game and also want to relive your tomb-raiding adventures, this will be the perfect title to get stuck into when the tables drop.
