Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis remake announced with AI‑assisted development
A full remake of the 1996 Tomb Ranger game, titled **Tomb Ranger: Legacy of Atlantis**, is slated for release on 12 February 2027 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2 and PC. Developed by Flying Wild Hog with guidance from Crystal Dynamics, the game uses Unreal Engine 5 and AI‑assisted tools for early content creation, which are later refined or replaced by human artists. Crystal Dynamics clarified that all final assets are human‑crafted.
A new trailer was shown at the Future Games Show and a State of Play event, receiving mixed reactions. Some players expressed concern over AI‑generated assets after a Steam page note highlighted the AI usage. The developers emphasized that the AI tools speed iteration while preserving creative quality.
Alix Wilton Regan, the newly cast voice actor, will also provide full performance capture for Lara Croft. In an interview at Summer Game Fest 2026, Regan described the demanding audition process, physical training for capture sessions, and the cultural significance of Lara Croft as a symbol of female strength.
