We
may
have
gotten
our
first
information
about
the
next
Tomb
Raider
game
courtesy
of
someone
who
typically
posts
Hollywood
scoops.

V
Scooper
typically
posts
insider
information
relating
to
the
movie
industry
and
has
a
decent
track
record.
How
and
why
he
or
she
managed
to
stumble
across
information
pertaining
to
a
new
Tomb
Raider
game
is
unclear,
although
perhaps
it’s
due
to
the
Tomb
Raider
franchise
having
crossed
into
film
territory
a
few
times.

Whatever
the
case
may
be,
V
Scooper
claims
to
know
quite
a
bit
about
the
next
Tomb
Raider
title
which
was
actually
announced
back
in
2022
when
Crystal
Dynamics
said
it’s
being
developed
on
Unreal
Engine
5.

According
to
V
Scooper,
the
new
game
will
be
set
in
India
and
will
feature
an
open
world
that
can
be
traversed
using
a
motorbike,
a
classic
vehicle
for
Lara
Croft.

“Next
TOMB
RAIDER
game
will
be
fully
open
world
and
set
in
India
Featuring
vast
sceneries,
free
use
of
the
motorcycle,
parachute,
and
common
Lara’s
traversal
methods
to
unrestrictedly
navigate
across
a
big
map
and
its
challenges,”

said
V
Scooper.

V
Scooper
went
on
to
post
further
details.
According
to
them,
a
“natural
disaster”
in
India
reveals
ancient
ruins
and
artefacts
relating
to
Emperor
Ashoka.

Ashoka
is
indeed
a
real
historical
figure
who
is
typically
credited
with
playing
a
major
role
in
spreading
Buddhism
across
ancient
Asia.

V
Scooper
then
says
that
the
game
will
have

Lara
Croft
racing
against
a
“Society
of
Raiders”
and
other
rivals
who
also
want
to
grab
these
power
artefacts.
Apparently,
this
strange
Society
of
Raider
is
inspired
by
Lara
but
is
“unaffiliated
and
might
have
some
opposite
agendas.”

There
will
also
apparently
be
a
new
feature
based
around
recruiting
people
to
aid
in
missions,
as
well
as
an
“emphasis
on
a
new
non-lethal
combat
option.”

As
for
when
the
game
might
turn
up,
V
Scooper
claims
that
it’s
supposed
to
release
in
less
than
a
year
if
there
are
no
delays,
but
“this
is
totally
not
locked.”
They
also
seem
to
believe
they
will
be
“proven
most
likely
soon.”

As
always
with
this
kind
of
stuff,
take
it
with
a
healthy
dose
of
salt.
