Over the years, the Tomb Raider series has seen several reboots and reimaginations, with the character of Lara Croft being redefined and the gameplay evolving to suit contemporary trends. Netflix has finally unveiled the first look for its animated series “Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft” and the brief glimpse looks pretty great.
While older fans may be more accustomed to the gun-toting Lara, Netflix’s series draws inspiration from more recent games, so the teaser starts with her wielding a bow and arrow as she explores an ancient ruin. The series will pick up Lara’s story after the conclusion of the Survivor trilogy, which includes the games Tomb Raider (2013), Rise of the Tomb Raider (2015), and Shadow of the Tomb Raider (2018).
Lara’s adventures typically center on the quest for powerful artifacts, including ancient relics, mystical objects, or legendary treasures. These items often hold significant historical or supernatural significance. The quality of the animation series is yet to be determined, but the initial glimpse promises to give fans an emotional and action-packed journey.
