Square Enix, Eidos-Montréal, and Crystal Dynamics today revealed the full trailer for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, the latest entry in the critically acclaimed and award-winning Tomb Raider series. Created by a team of veteran Tomb Raider developers at Eidos-Montréal, in collaboration with Crystal Dynamics, the game will be available on September 14, 2018 for the Xbox One family of devices, including Xbox One X, PlayStation 4 system and Windows PC/Steam .

In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Lara must master a deadly jungle, overcome terrifying tombs, and persevere through her darkest hour. As she races to save the world from a Mayan apocalypse, Lara will be forged into the Tomb Raider she is destined to be. The star of the critically acclaimed 2013 Tomb Raider reboot and the award-winning Rise of the Tomb Raider , Camilla Luddington, makes her return as Lara Croft with yet another stunning performance in Shadow of the Tomb Raider.


"Thanks to their incredible expertise, knowledge of the franchise and outstanding creativity, Eidos-Montréal, in collaboration with Crystal Dynamics, is delivering a powerful experience with Shadow of the Tomb Raider," said Yosuke Matsuda, president and representative director of Square Enix Holdings Co., Ltd. "Shadow of the Tomb Raider will take the series to new heights and Lara Croft to new depths."

"Shadow of the Tomb Raider will challenge Lara Croft in new and unexpected ways," said David Anfossi, Head of Studio at Eidos-Montréal. "Our team has created a diverse set of skills, combat techniques and equipment for players to master, and they'll certainly need them if they hope to survive the deadly jungle environments and tombs."


Last night, Square Enix welcomed fans, community leaders, press, and industry influencers to events in Montreal, London, and Los Angeles so they could experience Lara Croft's defining moment as she becomes the Tomb Raider. Now, a wealth of information, screenshots, and more is now available at TombRaider.com.


Fans in the New York City area will be able to enjoy a Special Preview of Shadow of the Tomb Raider at the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival on Friday, April 27. This free event will start at 4 p.m. EST, and will take place inside of the BMCC Theater at the Tribeca Performing Arts Center. Join the creative team as they discuss the evolution of Lara Croft and share in the techniques, tools and inspiration behind the series. Panel attendees will be able to witness an exclusive extended gameplay demo for the upcoming Shadow of the Tomb Raider game.

Pre-orders are available now for the Standard, Digital Deluxe, Croft, and Ultimate Editions. For full details on pre-order items, the Season Pass, key beats in the upcoming campaign, and more information on Shadow of the Tomb Raider, please visit the official website.

Personally I feel like they need to retire the series.

This franchiseis a pretty good one. Despite the fact that the last one was a bit too "crafty" sometimes, the content is quite good for the price (not on day 1).

I don't know if it helps that I didn't play any of the originals, but I am a big fan of the reboot series. I've thoroughly enjoyed all of them and look forward to playing this.
