Tomb Raider Reloaded is an upcoming action arcade game developed by Canadian[1] studio Emerald City Games and Square Enix London for iOS and Android devices. Based in the Tomb Raider series, the game uses the classic character depiction of protagonist Lara Croft, departing from the grittier presentation of its recent titles. The title is set to release in 2021 as a free-to-play game, with optional in-game purchases.[2][3]

Development[]

The game was announced on November 23, 2020 for a 2021 release on iOS and Android, with Emerald City Games serving as the development studio, with it being published by Square Enix London.[4] Franchise developer Crystal Dynamics would not be directly involved with the game, but would provide assistance to assure a "great Tomb Raider experience".[5] On March 16, 2021, the game soft-launched in South East Asia, Thailand and the Philippines on the Google Play Store.[6] The game was shown to be a top-down action-adventure shooter, with elements and assets reused from mobile game Archero.[7][8]

On July 21, 2021, an update was released that included improved graphics, more levels, new music, bug fixes and more. The game also added a new opening cutscene featuring the voice of Keeley Hawes, who last voiced Lara Croft in Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris.[9]
