After the pictures had been leaked on-line final evening by way of online game discussion board ResetEra, followers rapidly famous that Croft’s field artwork pose was a precise match to the one seen in tonight’s official social media teaser for The Recreation Awards. There, she stands on a rock with one arm outstretched, holding up her iconic twin pistols.

That is unlikely. In response to the leak by way of ResetEra, outstanding gaming tipster Shinobi602 urged that a number of initiatives shall be revealed tonight and followers is not going to be dissatisfied.
In actual fact, Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics has been engaged on the subsequent chapter of the franchise for a number of years. I hope we get some information on that tonight as properly.
First introduced in 2022, we have not seen something in regards to the all-new Tomb Raider but, however we did get to see a redesign of Lara Croft final yr. In the meantime, this yr has been a turbulent time for Crystal Dynamics, with three waves of layoffs, 30 final month, an unknown variety of staff in August following Xbox’s cancellation of Good Darkish, 17 earlier this yr, and 10 extra in 2023.
On prime of all this, we additionally know that Amazon is partnering with Story Kitchen on a live-action Tomb Raider sequence starring Recreation of Thrones’ Sophie Turner as Lara Croft. Based on Story Kitchen, the present will “reinvent the franchise on a large scale” and “interconnect live-action tv sequence and video video games right into a unified storytelling universe.” How is all the pieces related? What different work is happening? We might be taught extra tonight.
