TOMB RAIDER Japanese Language 11
Nichole Wernett
During this period, a second development team was working on a second reboot of the series and character, which put emphasis on a darker and grittier interpretation of the character.[58][105] Another priority was presenting Lara as a more human character, putting her in vulnerable situations, and showing how she begins her journey to becoming a "tomb raider" through both narrative and gameplay.[106] The reboot, simply entitled Tomb Raider, was met with critical acclaim at launch in 2013, and became the start of the "Survivor Trilogy".[107][108] A sequel, eventually revealed as Rise of the Tomb Raider, was in development a few months after the reboot's release.[33][109] In response to criticisms about a lack of classic tombs, more optional and story-based tombs were incorporated into the game.[110] It continued the team's new portrayal of Lara, showing more sides to her character and her growing obsession with discovering the truth.[62] In 2018, Shadow of the Tomb Raider was released to coincide with a new film starring Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft, simply titled Tomb Raider, taking heavy inspiration from the 2013 game of the same name.[111][112] Shadow was developed by Eidos-Montréal as Crystal Dynamics completed Marvel's Avengers, though Crystal would provide secondary support. The game concluded Lara's origin story. A "Definitive Edition", featuring all 7 DLCs for Shadow was released in November 2019.[113]
