News about Tomb Raider is flying at the moment. Latest example: a rather improbable leak concerning the arrival of Lara Croft in another popular universe.
Between the next game from Crystal Dynamics and an upcoming Netflix series, Tomb Raider is slowly but surely returning to the forefront. While waiting to discover what awaits her in her next adventures, Lara Croft could make a notable appearance in another popular universe, if a recent leak is to be believed.
Tomb Raider could teach survival lessons in another universe
After Alan Wake or Dungeons & Dragons, Tomb Raider could be the subject of a crossover with the popular asymmetric multiplayer game Dead by Daylight. In any case, this is what Grumpy887, a leaker who had already predicted the aforementioned collaborations, is saying. This prediction took the form of a now-deleted Reddit conversation that could potentially add some credence to it. One user said: “ I hope the July chapter of Dead by Daylight will focus on The Walking Dead or Tomb Raider “. To which the leaker replied: “ I would also bet on Miss Lara Croft “.
As a reminder, Behavior Interactive, the studio behind Dead by Daylight, teased that a new survivor would arrive in July, with the following clue: “ a character who fully embodies the meaning of the word Survivor “. Since the reboot of Tomb Raider by Crystal Dynamics in 2013, the iconic Lara Croft fits this description quite well. However, we will have to wait for an official announcement from the game developers to have confirmation. Same observation for the next official adventure of the rich British adventurer, published by Amazon.
On another note, the studio behind Dead by Daylight is working in collaboration with the developers of Until Dawn for The Casting of Frank Stone, a narrative game centered on one of the iconic killers of the popular multiplayer title. This is expected in 2024 and was entitled to a new presentation as intriguing as it was horrific during Summer Game Fest 2024… where Tomb Raider was unfortunately conspicuous by its absence.
