According to a blog on TradeMork.com, Eidos has filed a trademark protection request for Tomb Raider Underworld, a name that could be revealed as the next video-game in the phenomenally successful Lara Croft series. Currently under the working title of Tomb Raider 8, the game is once again under the aegis of Crystal Dynamics.

According to TradeMork.com, Tomb Raider Underworld is "rumoured to be based around the Mayan Calendar. During five nameless and dangerous days at the end of the calendar called Wayeb', portals between the mortal realm and the Underworld dissolve, allowing ill-intending deities to causing disaster and mayhem."

Tomb Raider 8 has been tentatively pencilled in for a 2008 release and is expected to court Xbox 360, Sony PS3 and Windows PC. Hop on over to Tomb Raider Forums to give us your opinion on the title.
