Eyes have been searching for her for 7 years: Where is this adventurous woman?
The Tomb Raider series, which action and adventure enthusiasts have been waiting for new news for years, still remains silent despite the announcement made in 2022. Crystal Dynamics announced two years ago that it was working on a new game in collaboration with Amazon. However, no concrete developments have been shared about the game in the meantime. Apart from Lara Croft's renewed character design, the project is almost entirely at the rumor level.
WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG?According to a report from Kotaku, a reliable source in the gaming world, the studio is currently facing serious development issues. Ethan Gach, who wrote the report, states that Crystal Dynamics' big-budget project has been delayed, and this information is directly included in Embracer Group's financial reports. According to the report, the studio's large-scale project has been postponed to the 2026/2027 fiscal year—and this project is most likely Tomb Raider.
It was also reported that the studio had signed a new external partner agreement for the project, indicating that significant structural changes had occurred during the development phase.
Although news occasionally emerges that "the game is in its final stages of development," experts believe that these statements can lead to misleading interpretations. The existence of "strike teams" hired by the studio, namely small-scale, goal-oriented teams, is usually created for the purpose of solving technical bottlenecks rather than final adjustments.
This raises the possibility that the game may still be stuck at key stages.
LAST IN 2018...The last main game in the series, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, was released in 2018. It has been 7 years since then, but not a single piece of information has been available about Lara Croft's new adventure. This long wait has caused disappointment among fans, and the question "Where is this adventurous woman?" is increasingly echoed.
