2024 has already been an exciting year for Lara Croft fans with news of an upcoming animated show and a brand-new upcoming RPG.
However, it seems as though the Tomb Raider protagonist is not done there after making a surprise appearance at last night’s Gamescom opening show.
Check out the trailer for Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft below!

From the upcoming animated show Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft to RPG Tomb Raider: Shadows of Truth, our favourite archeologist is set to be a busy girl.
That is why fans were perhaps not too surprised to learn that she will also be making an appearance in Naraka: Bladepoint, a “Battle Royale unlike any other”.
Developed by 24 Entertainment, Naraka: Bladepoint is a free-to-play Battle Royale which sees up to 60 players fight each other to become the last one standing.
Promising fast-paced melee fights, players will “experience a unique fighting gameplay, combining fast movements in a large environment and a deep and intense melee combat system based on combos, parries, and counters.”
So that seems like the perfect environment for our very own Lara Croft and she is set to join the fray on 28 August.
The news was announced via Tomb Raider publisher Crystal Dynamics and was presented by Geoff Keighley during gamescom Opening Night Live.
Not only that but fans were also treated to a short teaser trailer showing Lara in both her familiar adventuring outfit as well as a brand-new look.
With some fans wishing Lara would stop making various cameos and focus on her own upcoming game, others are excited to see our favourite adventurer continue to be in the limelight.
Either way, it seems as though she is here to stay despite first making an appearance back in 1996.
