Well, another title from our most anticipated games of 2026 list has been delayed to 2027. Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis was one of two new Tomb Raider games revealed at The Game Awards back in December, and at the time it carried a loose 2026 window. Today’s State of Play pinned that down to February 12, 2027, which slides the remake a year past its original target. What came with the date, though, was a proper new trailer and preorders that are now live.
The game is a ground-up reimagining of the 1996 original, built in Unreal Engine 5 by Crystal Dynamics with co-development from Flying Wild Hog. Crystal Dynamics has technically been down this road before, having already reimagined the first game once as Tomb Raider: Anniversary back in 2007. This time the scope is bigger, running from Lara’s plunge into Peru’s Lost Valley to the crumbling ruins of Greece, with the environments pulled well past the original’s tight, room-by-room layout.
Along with the new visuals, another major change is in how the game actually plays. The original moved you from one self-contained puzzle room to the next, while Legacy of Atlantis opens those up into semi-connected spaces you can approach from different angles, with secrets and resources tucked in for anyone who pokes around. Even the old cog puzzle is back, reworked to sit inside the world instead of floating in a vacuum.
Pricing follows the now-usual two-tier split. The $59.99 Standard includes the Survivor Outfit as a preorder bonus, and the $69.99 Deluxe piles on 48-hour early access (ugh), the Parisian Fugitive Outfit, and a post-launch DLC story pack. Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is coming to PlayStation 5, XBOX Series X|S, and PC, with preorders open now.
