February 12, 2027 — Lara’s first adventure gets an Unreal Engine 5 reimagining
Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis ships Friday, February 12, 2027 (Saturday the 13th in Japan, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand) on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, and Steam. Crystal Dynamics co-develops with Flying Wild Hog; Amazon Game Studios publishes. It is built in Unreal Engine 5 as a complete reimagining of the 1996 original — Peru’s Lost Valley, Greece, and the Atlantis hunt — with modern exploration, combat, and puzzle flow rather than a flat HD filter.
Pre-orders are live across major storefronts (Switch 2 physical often as a Game Key Card). Standard, Deluxe, and Collector’s editions exist; Deluxe’s 48-hour early access is a pre-order perk, not a second global street date for Standard buyers.
Confirmed: 1996 remake multiplat in Feb 2027 — not Catalyst, not Shadow of the Tomb Raider DLC
Confirmed: Feb 12 / 13 2027, Crystal Dynamics + Flying Wild Hog, Amazon publish, UE5, multiplat including Switch 2, reimagining of the classic first game (Alix Wilton Regan as Lara in related materials). Not confirmed as a replacement that deletes every prior remaster from sale, or that every 1996 secret returns 1:1. The 2013–18 Survivor trilogy and Tomb Raider: Catalyst stay on separate clocks.

- Ignore listings that still say “2026 only” or “PS5 exclusive.”
Crystal Dynamics put two Tomb Raiders on the board — a remake and a new saga title
At The Game Awards 2025 the studio did not pick between nostalgia and forward motion: Legacy of Atlantis remakes Lara’s first expedition, while Tomb Raider: Catalyst was revealed as a separate new adventure. State of Play then dated the remake for February 12, 2027 after it slipped out of a 2026 year promise — and added Switch 2 to the set.
Search traffic that collapses both into one “Tomb Raider 2027” countdown is how SEO pages go stale. This URL is only Atlantis. Catalyst keeps its own blank or dated clock.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about this release date.
1When does Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis launch?
February 12, 2027 worldwide on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam (February 13 in Japan, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand). Crystal Dynamics / Amazon Game Studios locked that calendar at State of Play — it is a slip from the earlier 2026 year talk, not a vague window.
2Is it PS5 exclusive?
No. PlayStation Blog covers the PS5 SKU, but official materials also list Xbox Series, Switch 2, and Steam for the same February 12 date. Treat “PS5-only” scrapers as outdated.
3Is this the same game as Tomb Raider: Catalyst?
No. Legacy of Atlantis is a ground-up Unreal Engine 5 reimagining of the 1996 original. Catalyst is a separate new Crystal Dynamics adventure announced alongside it. Two Laras on the calendar — keep the titles straight.
4What’s the difference between Standard and Deluxe?
Standard (~$59.99) is the full game plus a Survivor Outfit pre-order bonus. Deluxe (~$69.99) adds 48-hour early launch access, the Parisian Fugitive Outfit, and a post-launch DLC story pack. Early-access Deluxe clocks can read February 10 — the public street date remains February 12.
