New Tomb Raider TTRPG lets you beat Lara Croft at her own game, but someone needs to check its characters are OK

The cover and character classes for Tomb Raider: Shadows of Truth.

A new Tomb Raider tabletop RPG has just been unveiled, and honestly? Its heroes have issues.

Announced by Evil Hat Productions (a publisher behind some of the best tabletop RPGs, like Blades in the Dark) ahead of a 2025 release, Tomb Raider: Shadows of Truth makes you a contemporary of Lara Croft on the hunt for forgotten treasures. Rather than trying to steal them, though, your adventurers "strive to reveal long-hidden knowledge and thwart those who would steal and exploit artifacts for their own gains." But considering how messed up the heroes seem based on their character sheet descriptions, robbers and T.rex boss fights (please have T.rex boss fights) will be the least of your worries. Actually, I feel like some of them may need a hug.
