Tomb Raider fans rejoice, Lara Croft officially returns this year in massive new release

Even though Lara Croft is soon returning to us in Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, there’s other new releases to get excited about starring the heroine.

We’re delighted to see classic Tomb Raider getting the love it deserves, as well as a welcome refresh to boot.

The next batch of remastered titles will launch on 14 February, which only a matter days away.

Even though we’ll likely be incredibly busy with these adventures, there’ll come a time when we long for more Lara Croft goodness.

We can't wait to replay these retro adventures in Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered

Fortunately, later in the year, a massive new release will become available that’ll fill that void left behind after the remasters.

Dark Horse is behind the upcoming Tomb Raider Colossal Collection, due for release on 24 June.

With the Tomb Raider Archives, first published in 2016, being increasingly difficult to get a hold of, it’s wonderful to see these old Lara Croft comics becoming available again.

The only issue that’ll be missing in this whopping 900 page book is a Witchblade/Tomb Raider collaboration purportedly due to “licensing issues”, per Push Square.

Even though it would have been nice to have the full collection, we’d say this is a mighty fine collectors item, even more so with a price tag of £89.99.

Not that we’re saying such an amount is cheap, however, it feels like a bargain in terms of what you’re receiving for your money.

Interestingly, the hard-back book has “Vol. 1” on the front, which suggests that more exciting compilations will be announced in due course.

Its description on Amazon reads, “Armed with an encyclopaedic knowledge of history, years of experience, and dual pistols, Lara will go to the ends of the earth to preserve the world's most precious treasures from a shadowy organisation intent on her destruction.”

Preorders are already open, so we advise that you get your order in early to avoid potentially missing out upon its June launch. We anticipate a lot of interest in this one.
