The countdown to the The Game Awards 2025 is accelerating, and with it, the usual last-minute leaks have begun to emerge.

In recent hours, the Society of Raiders profile (a community centered on the saga) claims to have received indications that Crystal Dynamics will present a remake of the first Tomb Raider, originally published in 1996. The comment has generated excitement among fans.

The rumor points to a remake of the classic, but the source is anonymous

The official The Game Awards social media account has confirmed the news, so we’ll have Tomb Raider at the gala.

• The idea of recovering the original Tomb Raider is not far-fetched. The studio has been working on the next chapter of the saga for some time, and internal delays may have led to the preparation of a parallel project to keep the brand alive while development advances.

The only thing certain, as of today, is that there will be a Tomb Raider-related announcement at The Game Awards 2025. The rest we’ll find out next Thursday during the gala presented by Geoff Keighley, where the community will be waiting to see if that remake is real… or if Lara Croft will return in a completely different way.
