According to the Tomb Raider Twitter account’s caption on the clip, a reveal event arrives next month on April 27. What this forthcoming announcement entails is as much of a mystery as the game itself. However, fans should at least expect a story trailer, perhaps with gameplay, and information regarding what’s next for Lara Croft.
Especially of note is the game’s Friday, September 14 release date. Shadow of the Tomb Raider won’t be a timed Xbox exclusive like its predecessor. Instead, the series’ third entry launches worldwide on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One platforms.
This news comes on the eve of the Tomb Raider film reboot’s theatrical release, an apt time to garner hype for the beloved franchise.
