Tomb Raider co-creator Paul Douglas has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the two upcoming Tomb Raider games that were revealed at The Game Awards 2025. After initial disappointment that the next entry in the series, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, would be yet another remake of the first game in the series, he claims that we will be getting the "best of both worlds" after a trailer for a completely new entry, Tomb Raider: Catalyst, was shown.
The first game in the long-enduring Tomb Raider series has received numerous reboots, remasters, and re-releases over the years, with the most recent one launching in 2024 as the Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered Collection. Upon the reveal of yet another Tomb Raider remake, Douglas wrote on Bluesky, "She's back apparently. Personally I'd prefer exploring new lost worlds than another remake/remaster/reimagining of something we crafted under intense duress in the 90's. Fingers crossed, eh."
