TOMB RAIDER SERIES CONTINUES WITH COMIC RELEASE AND 30TH ANNIVERSARY EVENTS

March 2026 brings a number of scheduled developments for the Tomb Raider franchise, centred on a forthcoming comic book release and the continuation of its thirtieth anniversary programme. Tomb Raider Sacred Artifacts Issue No. 3 is scheduled for release on 25 March. In this issue, Lara Croft, accompanied by Carter and Anna, travels to the Italian island of Sardinia. Their purpose is not leisure but the pursuit of a stolen artefact believed to possess world-altering power. The narrative links a dangerous legend, an ancient civilisation, and a figure known as the Postulant, placing Lara in opposition to a secretive and familiar cult seeking to unleash the artefact's potential.

The publication forms part of the ongoing thirtieth anniversary celebrations for the series. Developer Crystal Dynamics has confirmed a year-long programme of activity throughout 2026 to mark three decades of Tomb Raider, involving a number of partners whose contributions cover anniversary-themed hardware, apparel, collectibles, publishing projects, and fine art. Aspyr's participation follows its remastering of the early Tomb Raider titles and subsequent platform releases, while Dark Horse continues its established publishing association with the franchise.

The anniversary programme is also scheduled to coincide with the release of Tomb Raider Legacy of Atlantis, a reimagining of Lara Croft's original adventure. The title is in development at Crystal Dynamics in collaboration with Flying Wild Hog and Amazon Game Studios and is planned for release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. It forms part of the wider anniversary schedule, combining retrospective material with forthcoming projects during 2026.
