Netflix has given us our best look yet at its upcoming animated series, Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft.

The show is scheduled to make its debut on the streaming service this autumn, and features the vocal talents of the MCU's Hayley Atwell as Lara Croft. It's all set to take place after the events of the Tomb Raider Survivor trilogy, which comprised Tomb Raider (2013), Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

"Following the events of the Survivor Trilogy, Lara Croft (voiced by Hayley Atwell) has abandoned her friends to embark on increasingly more perilous solo adventures," reads the official blurb. "But she must return home when a dangerous and powerful Chinese artefact is stolen from Croft Manor by a thief with an uncanny personal connection."

Hayley Atwell - known for her role as Peggy Carter in numerous Marvel projects - is set to voice Lara Croft in Netflix's upcoming Tomb Raider animation. While this has been known for a while now, we hadn't heard how the actress sounds in her new part. Until now.

In a sizzle reel shared by Netflix to promote the various animated shows on the streaming service, we finally hear Atwell's Lara speak. The show is set to take place after the events of the Tomb Raider Survivor trilogy, which comprised Tomb Raider (2013), Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

These games rebooted the Tomb Raider series, and served as an origin story for Lara. As such, this Lara was less assured than the Lara we were first introduced to back in the 90s. However, judging by the most recent Netflix trailer, Atwell is bringing back some of that iconic confidence to the character. You can check it out for yourself below, at around the 40 seconds mark.

The Tomb Raider timelines, explained.

Tomb Raider has a chartered history, with Lara Croft delving into ruins and tombs all over the world. Overcoming any and all obstacles set in her path, Lara has elevated herself into an exclusive and lauded pantheon of iconic video game protagonists.

With a new Tomb Raider currently in …

Společnost Crystal Dynamics již v roce 2022 oznámila, že zahájila vývoj další hry Tomb Raider, a přestože oficiálních informací o titulu bylo od té doby málo, některé nové potenciální detaily se možná objevily díky úniku informací od uživatele Twitteru V Scooper.

Tento leaker, který má za sebou slušnou bilanci přesných úniků (i když převážně těch, které se týkají filmů a televize), na Twitteru prohlásil, že příští hra Tomb Raider se bude odehrávat v Indii a bude mít plně otevřený svět.

Příběh hry údajně odstartuje přírodní katastrofa v severní Indii, která odhalí nové, dosud neobjevené ruiny a artefakty z doby vlády krále Ašóky. Ve hře bude Lara závodit se skupinou známou jako Společnost nájezdníků, která je údajně „inspirována“, ale „nespojená“ s Larou, a „možná má opačné plány“.

Únik tvrdí, že hra umožní hráčům prozkoumávat „rozsáhlé scenérie“ pomocí motorky, padáků a Lařiných parkourových schopností. Hra bude údajně také obsahovat rozšířený důraz na nesmrtící stealth a bojové možnosti, zatímco nový systém verbování umožní funkcím najímat spojence a týmy, které vám budou „strategicky pomáhat v misích“.

Už v roce 2022, krátce poté, co bylo potvrzeno, že se na další hře Tomb Raider pracuje, unikly informace, že se bude „odehrávat v moderním světě otřeseném záhadným kataklyzmatem“ a bude v ní vystupovat mnohem zkušenější verze Lary Croft. Více informací o této hře najdete zde.

Další titul Tomb Raider je vyvíjen v enginu Unreal Engine 5. V prosinci 2022 bylo oznámeno, že jej vydá společnost Amazon Games.

With such an impressive roster of talent, emptyvessel is poised to make a buzz in the gaming industry, particularly in packed First Person Shooter genre

As the studio continues to develop its inaugural title, fans of action-packed, story-driven games will undoubtedly be eager to learn more. Stay tuned for further updates on emptyvessel and their upcoming projects.

The post Mick Gordon and Emanuel Palalic Left DOOM Behind and Cook a FPS Game with the new “emptyvessel” Studio appeared first on WePlayGames.net: Home for Top Gamers.

The remaster of the original three Tomb Raider games was released not that long ago. For PC users, there was a choice between purchasing it on Steam or Epic Games Store. However, there seemed to be some notable differences between the two versions, which the developer has now acknowledged.

According to a post from The Gamer a couple of days ago, fans began to notice that Tomb Raider I-III Remastered was different on EGS than on Steam. For starters, the Epic Games version had different skyboxes in places like the Colosseum, and the Greece levels had "new light holes."

Since then, a post on the Steam page has noted that EGS had a build of the remaster that had "incomplete assets," and the download contained "some work-in-progress materials" that weren't meant for public consumption.

Update also imminent

Aspyr has now fixed the problem, uploading the correct version to Epic. However, some – such as a reporter from Eurogamer and the aforementioned The Gamer article – have noted this incomplete build had better-looking assets than the Steam version. This could suggest that the two downloads are not evenly matched, for whatever reason.

That aside, Tomb Raider I-III Remastered is also getting its first update soon. In the same Steam post, the developer thanked fans for their "continued support, shares, and feedback" on the games, with an update said to be in the works.

We don't exactly know what's coming, but the studio says it anticipates sending this update out "in the next few weeks."

The post The Epic Games version of Tomb Raider I-III Remastered was wildly an ‘incomplete’ build appeared first on Destructoid.

According to Tomb Raider fans, the best version of the recently released Tomb Raider I-III Remastered collection isn’t on Steam or Xbox. Instead, it’s on the Epic Games Store. Or, well, it was, until today when the studio behind the remaster patched it out of existence, leaving some players frustrated.

UPDATE 4.45pm UK: Consider me educated. I have looked into this further, and it turns out not only is Trinity the name of the military order in the rebooted Tomb Raider games, but it is also the code name for the first detonation of a nuclear weapon, which was conducted by the United States Army back in 1945. And that could be what the Tomb Raider website is referring to. Whoops!

So, yes, the mention of Trinity on the Tomb Raider site may well be a coincidence that left the super fan in me a little too enthusiastic. Reader, I confess, I may have jumped the gun a bit here. I am going to send a message to the Tomb Raider team though and ask if they have any comment on the wording in the blog post, because my curiosity has now been piqued even more.

The original story continues below.
