The trailer shows Lara Croft scaling cliffs and trudging through the jungle in an effort to save the world from the Mayan apocalypse. While no gameplay is shown, the trailer does set a much darker tone for Lara’s next adventure. Camilla Luddington will also be reprising her role as Lara Croft for a third time in this gritty new entry to the series. 

“Shadow of the Tomb Raider will challenge Lara Croft in new and unexpected ways,” said David Anfossi, the 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.”

Shadow of the Tomb Raider’s extended trailer was revealed last night during a special event for Tomb Raider fans and influencers hosted by Square Enix. Today at 4:00 pm EST, there will be a special preview event at the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival in New York City. Panel attendees get to enjoy an extended gameplay demo for the game as well.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider Concept
