A screenshot from the most recent main-series Tomb Raider title, 2018's
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Amazon's games division will publish the next big
Tomb Raider
sequel, a press release
revealed
today.
The game will be developed by Crystal Dynamics—the same studio that made the reboot trilogy that included 2013's
Tomb Raider
, 2015's
Rise of the Tomb Raider
, and 2018's
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
.
Crystal Dynamics used to live under the umbrella of large, Japan-based international publisher Square-Enix, but
the parent company sold Crystal Dynamics
and the Tomb Raider intellectual property to Swedish holding company Embracer Group earlier this year. That sale also included the
Deus Ex
,
Thief
, and
Legacy of Kain
franchises and associated studios—in other words, most of Square-Enix's Western studios and properties.
