Lara Croft’s return now has a date. Amazon Game Studios, Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog have announced that Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis will launch on February 12, 2027, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam and Nintendo Switch 2, and pre-orders are officially open. A new trailer debuted during the State of Play broadcast, giving fans a first look at new gameplay from the reimagining of the original 1996 Tomb Raider.

Legacy of Atlantis sends Lara on a globe-trotting quest to discover the lost secrets of Atlantis, with the classic story expanded by deeper connections that bridge her defining adventure to her future. The journey runs from the jungles of Peru to the crumbling ruins of Greece, the deserts of Egypt and a mysterious island shrouded in myth. Familiar puzzles return with new mechanics, players use Lara’s strength, agility and grappling hook to climb, leap and swing across deadly terrain, and the legendary battle against the T-Rex is back as a full-scale encounter. Lara fights with her signature dual pistols and other unlockable weapons against savage wildlife, mercenaries and mythological creatures.

Pre-orders on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Steam come in three editions. The Standard Edition, priced at £49.99, includes the game and a Survivor Outfit pre-order bonus. The Deluxe Edition, at £59.99, adds 48-hour early launch access, a Parisian Fugitive Outfit and a post-launch DLC story pack. The Collector’s Edition, at £159.99, adds a premium steel case, a Lara Croft vs. The T-Rex statue, a mini art book, a Croft signet pin and an Atlantean talisman keychain.

The announcement also confirmed that the Nintendo Switch 2 version arrives on launch day, February 12, 2027, with the same cinematic scale and gameplay optimized for the hardware at home and on the go. At launch the game will carry full audio and text support in English, French, German, Spanish (LATAM), Portuguese (Brazil), Polish and Simplified Chinese, with text-only support in Italian, Spanish (Spain), Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese.

Tom the Postgirl Is Available Now on Nintendo Switch and PC/Mac

Published

on

Cultural media company ARTE France and independent studio Oopsie Daisies are pleased to announce that Tom the Postgirl is available starting today on PC and Mac via Steam, as well as on Nintendo Switch, priced at €9.99 / $9.99 / £8.99 (launch offer on Steam with a 10% discount for the 2 weeks following release).

Tom the Postgirl is the cute yet creepy debut from punk indie studio Oopsie Daisies, and follows Tom on her delivery rounds as she makes her way around her home village, meeting eccentric inhabitants and getting into all sorts of delightfully chaotic mischief. Darkly funny and only occasionally violent, this adventure is a perfect way to mark the spookiest time of year.

“We create games with a punk twist, exploring childhood tales and slightly awkward memories. Our studio bets on the unexpected, transforming ‘oops’ moments into exciting adventures.” — Oopsie Daisies

Tom the Postgirl is the debut game from Oopsie Daisies, five longtime friends brought together by a shared vision: to create games with a punk twist. Léa Coquoz (art direction and game design), Lorenz Kleiser (technical direction and game design), Kathleen Bohren and Natascha Dübi (animation), and Floris Demandt (sound direction) have created a universe as cute as it is disturbing, at the crossroads of a children’s picture book and an adult cartoon.

Calling all fans of creepy cute narrative games! This absurd adventure follows mischievous Tom on her delivery rounds that always go wrong. Unsurprisingly, Tom takes every opportunity to spy inside houses whenever she gets the chance. Players accompany Tom through a charming village where every resident has something to hide. You deliver their packages, but what do they do with them behind closed doors? Every window, door, and crack in the wall is a chance to learn more about the inhabitants and their dirty little secrets: a narcissistic mayor, an orphanage that looks dangerously like a dog kennel, a couple of chainsaw-wielding hippies — human nature in all its horrible beauty awaits you!

Key features: Walk and stalk — frame-by-frame animation gives a retro feel to this universe and immerses the player in a strange village where the slightest detail can turn into a suspicious event, with unique hand-drawn backgrounds and numerous hiding places from which to spy on residents. A guilty pleasure — from drug-dealing pigeons in the cemetery to wandering cowboy earthworms and grumpy squirrels, humans aren’t the only ones worth watching; whether you focus on your delivery job or disturb the peace is your choice. Between Adult Swim and a children’s book — Tom the Postgirl blends the naive aesthetic of illustrated books with the raw, nonsensical strangeness of an Adult Swim cartoon.
