After all, many might not remember that gaming in the United States almost straight-up ended in the 1980s or that there were once numerous console makers and publishers doing software titles before getting “narrowed down” to the ones we have today. However, one of the biggest “history lessons” we need to learn from and adjust in the future is how female characters have been depicted in games, and Microsoft seems to finally be ready to take a step in the right direction on that account.

It's a pretty exceptional remaster too, sprucing things up by giving the original games' arguably outdated visuals a fresh coat of paint. it all looks pretty new and shiny, mostly for the better, though there is one glaring exception that is causing a bit of frustration among fans.

Tomb Raider Remastered is here to inject a decent dose of '90s nostalgia, with everyone's favourite heroine, Lara Croft, returning to her three original adventures on modern consoles and PC.

The next Tomb Raider game that is currently in development has presumably shared the first official sneak peek of hero Lara Croft, and it's an exciting throwback.

Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics launched a new website for the franchise on Wednesday — Valentine’s Day is also Lara Croft’s birthday — with another peek at the impending “unified” design for its action heroine.

The anime will bring Lara to a new audience and give her an epic style with an epic lady to voice the icon: Hayley Atwell.

It’s been more than a decade since Crystal Dynamics, the developer best known for the Tomb Raider series, first introduced players to its reimagined take on Lara Croft. 2013’s Tomb Raider painted Lara as someone capable of adapting and overcoming nearly any situation while maintaining a level of emotional depth and self-awareness, a quality the game’s sequels would go on to further explore.
