ONE Tomb Raider the announcement has been confirmed for The Game Awards 2025, which will air on Thursday, December 11. While it’s still a mystery what exactly will be revealed, we do know that there will be information about “the future of one of gaming’s most iconic franchises.”
Game Awards 2025 recently held an event in Fortniteallowing players to visit 10 creator-made islands before casting a vote for which they liked best. As part of this, a teaser for Tomb Raider was also featured as you can see below:
Did you miss her? She missed you. 🔫As just revealed in The Game Awards Vote in Fortnite map portal, tune in to @thegameawards on December 11th for a look at the future of one of gaming’s most iconic franchises @tombraider#TombRaider #Fortnite #TheGameAwards pic.twitter.com/IiN3jPQSkS8 December 2025
The shared image shows a silhouette of Lara Croft wielding her iconic dual pistols, surrounded by a lot of mysterious ancient technology. To me, this looks more like her classic look, but could even just be her Fortnite design. As such, it’s hard to tell if the teaser gives any hints about a new direction for the long-running franchise.
The developer Crystal Dynamics announced that it had started work on a new Tomb Raider game back in 2022, although we haven’t had any updates since. In addition, the studio has gone through several rounds of layoffs, the latest just a few weeks ago.
With very little to go on, I just hope that the new Tomb Raider reveal is for a whole new set of games. I loved the Crystal Dynamics trilogy that ended with Shadow of the Tomb Raiderbut I think it’s time for a new direction.
Something a little more arcade-like and classic with lots of color and true Indiana Jones style adventure. Please, enough of the horrible reboots.
