Crystal Dynamics and Amazon Game Studios have officially set the release date for the highly anticipated Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis. The game will launch on February 12, 2027, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), and Nintendo Switch 2.

The announcement came during Sony’s State of Play broadcast on June 2, 2026, accompanied by a new trailer that showcased stunning Unreal Engine 5 visuals, expanded environments, and modernized gameplay.

A Modern Reimagining of the Original Classic

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is a full remake of the 1996 original that launched the iconic franchise. Rather than a simple remaster, the project is described as a “stunning reimagining” that honors the spirit of Lara Croft’s debut adventure while delivering contemporary design, expanded storytelling, and next-generation technology.

Key features highlighted so far include:

  • Jaw-dropping visuals powered by Unreal Engine 5, with highly detailed environments, dynamic lighting, and realistic physics.
  • Modern gameplay mechanics — including updated platforming, fluid combat, and more intuitive controls while preserving the sense of exploration and discovery.
  • Expanded levels and new surprises that build upon the original’s iconic locations (Peru, Greece, Egypt, and Atlantis).
  • Alix Wilton Regan returning as the voice of Lara Croft, delivering a more grounded and gritty performance that bridges the classic and Survivor timelines.

Development and Publishing

The game is being developed primarily by Crystal Dynamics in collaboration with Polish studio Flying Wild Hog (known for Shadow Warrior and Dying Light 2 support). It is published by Amazon Game Studios, continuing their partnership with the Tomb Raider franchise.

This marks one of the most ambitious single-player Tomb Raider experiences in years, arriving alongside the new narrative entry Tomb Raider: Catalyst, also slated for 2027.

Editions and Pre-Order Details

Pre-orders are now open with the following editions available:

  • Standard Edition — $69.99
  • Deluxe Edition — Includes extra outfits, weapons, and digital extras
  • Collector’s Edition — Features a premium T-Rex statue, art book, steelbook case, and more physical collectibles

Pre-order bonuses include the exclusive Lara Croft Survivor Outfit and 48-hour early access.

Why Fans Are Excited

For many longtime fans, Legacy of Atlantis represents a dream come true: a faithful yet modernized return to the roots of the franchise that defined 3D action-adventure gaming. The original 1996 game revolutionized the industry with its blend of exploration, puzzles, and cinematic storytelling. This remake aims to recapture that magic for a new generation while satisfying veterans.

The delay from the previously rumored late 2026 window to February 2027 appears to be a strategic move to ensure the game meets the high visual and gameplay standards fans expect from a major Tomb Raider title.

What’s Next?

More gameplay footage and in-depth features are expected in the coming months, likely at major events such as Gamescom 2026 or The Game Awards.

With two major Tomb Raider games scheduled for 2027, the franchise is experiencing a significant renaissance under Amazon’s stewardship.

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis arrives February 12, 2027.
