Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis gets brand new teaser

Amazon Games, Crystal Dynamics, and Flying Wild Hog have released a 30th anniversary teaser trailer for Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis. The footage was first shown to fans at TR30 Derby and MCM London before the teaser went online on October 25. TR30 Derby is an unofficial fan celebration held in the city where Core Design created Lara Croft. The original Tomb Raider launched on Sega Saturn in October 1996. Eidos Interactive published the original, which Core Design developed in Derby.

A reimagining built from the ground up

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis rebuilds Lara Croft’s first adventure in Unreal Engine 5. The story still follows her hunt for the scattered pieces of the Scion, an ancient artifact, across Peru, Greece, Egypt, and a mysterious island shrouded in myth. The developers describe it as a true reimagining that honors the original while expanding the story with links between Lara’s first adventure and her future. Alix Wilton Regan voices Lara Croft in the new game.

New traversal and combat tools

The teaser is billed as a sneak peek, but the gameplay systems themselves were revealed earlier. Lara gets a grappling hook to climb, leap, and swing across treacherous terrain. She also carries an archaeological scanner, an optional tool that helps her survey her surroundings and find clues. Combat adds a focus meter that fills as Lara deals damage, takes hits, and dodges attacks. Once it is charged, time slows around her so she can pull off acrobatic moves. Crystal Dynamics detailed Focus in an August developer diary. The game also brings back a skill tree, where artifacts earn skill points for upgrades such as faster fire rate and improved healing, along with crafting. Lara’s dual pistols return, and the developers have said the game can be finished using only them.

Release date and platforms

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis launches February 12, 2027, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Nintendo Switch 2, all on the same day. That date was confirmed in June, when the game moved out of its original 2026 window. Pre-orders are open, and retailers list the standard edition at $59.99 with a Survivor Outfit bonus. An earlier trailer focused on how the game reworks its Greek levels.
