Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis' new 30th anniversary trailer reveals classic moments from 1996's Tomb Raider in dazzling remake footage.

The short version

  • To mark the occasion, developers Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog, and publisher Amazon Game Studios, revealed a new look at the game originally meant to celebrate that milestone: Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis .
  • Released this weekend at the TR30 Derby and MCM London, the latest sneak peek at the Tomb Raider remake is full of nostalgic moments made even more spectacular — or at least much more graphically realistic.
  • The latest look at Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis showcases the game's four major locations — Peru, Greece, Egypt, and Atlantis — and some of their most memorable moments.

What happened

That includes the giant Atlas puzzle, the monstrous Atlanteans that Lara has to fight, and the unfortunate consequence of stepping on the hand of King Midas' statue. If you have been curious about what a cursed, golden Lara looks like with modern technology, look no further.

Why it matters

While much of what's on display is classic Lara Croft, including the incredible acrobatics she employs during gunfights, Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog aren't doing a one-to-one remake with Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis .
