Lara Croft: Tomb Raider video game series is undoubtedly one of the most popular video game series of all time. Over the past 25 years, Tomb Raider games have kept the fans hooked thanks to its blend of action, adventure, and puzzle-solving.
We’ve seen multiple iterations of Lara Croft over the years, mainly because the franchise was acquired by different corporations. At the moment, CDE Entertainment owns the franchise and it seems like they’re planning to grow Lara Croft’s influence on the gaming industry.

The battle royale game features a unique and engaging martial arts-inspired melee combat and a rock-paper-scissors combat system. It is available for free on Windows, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PlayStation 5.
