The animated series TOMB RAIDER: THE LEGEND OF LARA CROFT continues where the popular Tomb Raider video game Survivor trilogy (which includes Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider) left off, following the fearless adventurer’s next journey. Over 25 years since her first appearance, Lara Croft (voiced by Hayley Atwell) remains the iconic figure uncovering ancient mysteries and solving lost puzzles in thrilling, breathtaking locations.
In this new chapter after the events of the Survivor trilogy, Lara leaves her friends behind to embark on even more dangerous solo adventures. However, she is forced to return home when a powerful Chinese artifact is stolen from Croft Manor by someone with a deeply personal connection. This sets Lara on a worldwide adventure to reclaim the artifact, dive deep into forgotten tombs, and face her true self, ultimately making a choice about what kind of hero she wants to be.
