How about Lara gets a girlfriend to help with that loneliness... Bet that doesn't happen.

I just don't understand why a Tomb Raider game needs to tell an adult story where Lara is sad time and time again. Why can't a modern Tomb Raider game just be a fun adventure?

I can't wait until people learn about the bisexual dating and gruesome horror elements.

Can't wait for yet another game where at the beginning she struggles with her morality, then proceeds to viciously murder, maim and destroy everything in sight, then claim it's because she had to, or some dumb ass white savior story, yet again

You don't know what I'm all about. Like raiding tombs and protecting artifacts.

i shouldnt be surprised, because for some reason this forum really has some hate boner for TR, but the fact that people are pre-emptively getting mad at games over unverified leaks is always funny.

It's called Jawbreaker because it's very hard to digest this disappointing information

Finally, good torture porn was getting rare in the AAA place.

Also, "struggles with lonliness" and "group of fellow raiders". Clearly there's only one logical conclusion:
Tomb Raider Dating Sim

I'll probably play out but I wish they they would just let Lara be a badass again for once.

A Team of Tomb Raiders?
But why?
I suppose it's a way of adding some sort of a multiplayer mode to the game.
But oh, it sounds so stupid.

It's going to the called The Tomb Raiders isn't it?

I don't hate the idea of her struggling with loneliness. Sounds like an actual character arc which was desperately missing from TRINITY the previous trilogy.

"Realistic with fantasy elements" isn't that the tone of the entire Tomb Raider franchise, except maybe the isometric ones?
idk I'm not a canon expert but I'd say the TR2013 trilogy downplays the fantasy stuff relative to the previous games, even though there are still supernatural elements

this leak doesn't answer what would've been my main question, which is whether or not this is in the same continuity as the previous trilogy. time to bring back the dual pistols regardless

I feel dumb lol After all the complaining about the previous trilogy, I was expecting a BOTW sort of moment for the series, with it taking more heavy inspiration from the originals.

This just kinda sounds like the same as its been since 2013. Except it might be a co-op game.

Also, not gonna lie, I laughed at "she struggles with loneliness" I don't know why. It just got me lol
4 player Tomb Raider game where we don't get to play as Laura.
Good, as I'd rather just play as Lara. šŸ˜šŸ˜Ž

Let Lara be alone in some crazy environment filled with ruins and feral beasts. Raider of the Wild as soon as possible please.

Huh, casting for a 30's actress? Didn't expect them to reboot the series. Excited to see a new game if it's built with UE5. Oh wait the source is Colin Moriarty? Bleehhhh

I still don't even know why Reboot Lara does any of this shit. She clearly doesn't enjoy any of it.

"I had to kill everyone and destroy another ancient civilization that I exposed again, for absolutely no reason other than my own dumb family greed and I can't get over it an move on, to solve a problem I created...why? BECAUSE I'M THE FUCKING TOMB (drum beat into orchestral horns) RAIDER"

"Lara is experienced w/ years of "protecting artifacts" and adventures"
"Lara's adventures reached tabloids/ media and inspired a new generation of Tomb Raiders"

ughh god, why is decent writing so fucking rare in this industry
