The full remake of the 1996 title Legacy of Atlantis is confirmed for a 12 February 2027 launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC (Steam), and Nintendo Switch 2. Development is being handled by Crystal Dynamics with assistance from Flying Wild Hog using Unreal Engine 5. In August 2026, developers released details regarding combat and progression, including the ‘Focus system’ for time manipulation and a variety of firearms. While the inclusion of a skill tree and crafting system has drawn some criticism, the game will also feature a highly customizable difficulty system for combat, puzzles, and traversal. During Gamescom 2026, gameplay showcased Lara Croft in the Peruvian jungle. In September 2026, pre-orders opened for the Nintendo Switch 2 version, offering Standard, Deluxe, and Collector’s Editions. On 21 September 2026, a tenth episode of a development mini-documentary was released, focusing on the reimagining of the Egypt level. Developers stated they aim to ‘balance nostalgia with modern standards’ by using Unreal Engine 5 to create detailed environments. On 29 September 2026, a subsequent documentary installment introduced the ‘Cat Mummy’ as a specific enemy. Game Director Raul Siqueira explained that the Egyptian setting serves as a turning point to introduce supernatural elements into the gameplay, highlighting Flying Wild Hog’s work on enemy animations and behavioral patterns. On 5 October 2026, the game’s Steam page silently removed mentions of the Denuvo anti-piracy system following negative community feedback regarding potential performance and stability issues on PC. Additionally, a new behind-the-scenes documentary episode introduced actor Bradley Snedeker as Larson Conway, a mercenary and rival to Lara Croft who serves as an antagonist working for Natla. On 7 October 2026, further development details were shared regarding the characterization of Larson Conway.
