Earlier today, the studio confirmed that Tomb Raider: Catalyst will now launch in 2028, a shift from its original 2025 release date. The postponement follows the earlier delay of Legacy of Atlantis, the Tomb Raider 1 remake, which was pushed to early 2025.
The announcement surfaced during a conversation between Christopher Dring of The Game Business and Amazon’s gaming chief Jeffrey Gattis, during which they discussed Amazon’s gaming strategy and portfolio.
Gattis noted, “Legacy of Atlantis will arrive on February 12 next year, followed by the next title in 2028.”
In contrast to Legacy of Atlantis, which revisits the classic storyline, Tomb Raider: Catalyst presents a brand‑new adventure that thrusts Lara Croft into the heart of Northern India’s archaeological enigmas.
As a result, the title is slated for a purely digital launch, following Sony’s announcement that it will discontinue the production of physical discs after the end of next year.
