Once again going viral thanks to IGN re-posting an article on X, check out the Crystal Dynamics redesign for Lara Croft in the upcoming âTomb Raider Nextâ video game.
The image below first surfaced on February 14, Laraâs birthday, on a newly launched Tomb Raider website.
The pic features Lara Croft looking like her classic Tomb Raider self with the blue tank top, brown shorts, and she sports two guns.
As noted, the image looks just like the character in Call of Duty, so this is assumed to be the new âunifiedâ look of the character.
This might also be the look in the upcoming live-action series coming to Amazon Prime Video from Phoebe Waller-Bridge and The Marvels writer Megan McDonnell.
The new Tomb Raider Next video game also has Amazon Games supporting development. So again, this looks to be the unified design across all forms of media.
What is Tomb Raider Next about?
Details are slim about the new game but there are rumors.
From back in March and May, according to X user, V Scooper:
