A sneak peek at the new Tomb Raider has surfaced ahead of the Game Awards, revealing a redesigned Lara Croft, the game’s possible title, and a few gameplay screenshots.
Tomb Raider Is Going Back To Its Roots
All the way back to the beginning
Rumor has it the new game is titled Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, serving as a reimagining of the original 1996 release while blending in aspects of the character from the recent reboot trilogy. Some reports even hint that Legacy of Atlantis might not be the only Tomb Raider project revealed at The Game Awards, but we’ll have to wait to find out. The leaked cover art shows Lara striking the exact same pose as in The Game Awards’ official teaser, fueling speculation that these leaks could be legit.
The screenshots reveal a Lara that more closely mirrors her rebooted counterpart, while still incorporating clear elements of the classic Tomb Raider design. Beyond that, there are vibrant jungle settings, ancient ruins, and plenty of impressive acrobatic feats. In short, it’s classic Tomb Raider through and through.
We'll Have To Tune Into The Game Awards
Not long to go now
If you want to know for sure whether these leaks are real (my money’s on yes), you’ll need to catch The Game Awards tonight. The 2025 show kicks off on December 11 at 4:30 PM Pacific/7:30 PM Eastern, with most people likely tuning in on the official YouTube or Twitch streams. Alongside the return of Tomb Raider, we’ll get a fresh look at the PlayStation-exclusive Saros and finally learn what that mysterious statue has been hinting at. It’s almost certainly a new Divinity game from Larian—but let’s all pretend to be surprised when it’s announced.
