Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics has announced the release of Lara Croft's Tomb Raiders Mark of the Phoenix. Lara Croft's Tomb Raiders RPG is a passion project by long-standing Crystal employee, Matt Gaston.

"In Lara Croft's Tomb Raiders, players will assume the roles of fictional characters in the mysterious world of Tomb Raider. These characters work for Lara Croft, who has more leads to follow than she has time to follow them. Players will explore ancient sites to discover information and artifacts - guided by the campaign's Raid Master."

"Campaigns will focus on knowledge, language, and investigative skills in addition to action-oriented skills to keep it true to the franchise roots. Lara Croft's Tomb Raiders will include the core rulebook and the first campaign book, Mark of the Phoenix."

"While the lore in the game is non-canonical, there is much to discover and love and we are eager to see some community campaigns. The campaign and rule books include a ton of amazing art by Kameliya Minkova and Johann Blaise, and the art was inspired by scenes and characters from all the games as well as movies!"

Hop on over to the official Crystal Dynamics blog for further information and to download Lara Croft's Tomb Raiders Mark of the Phoenix.

Guys, I am legit FREAKING OUT over this news! 💃💕 As a hardcore Tomb Raider fangirl, I can't contain my excitement about diving into the world of Lara Croft once again, but this time in tabletop RPG format!

I mean, seriously, how epic is this?

I can't wait to gather my group of fellow adventurers, roll those dice, and embark on thrilling quests filled with ancient artifacts, heart-pounding action, and of course, those intense puzzle-solving moments that we all adore!

Let me tell you, fam, the previous Tomb Raider tabletop game was already a blast, but this RPG version has got me like

🔥. Just thinking about the endless possibilities and the chance to create our own Tomb Raider stories together with friends is giving me major goosebumps! 💪

So, mark your calendars, set your alarms, and get ready to raid some tombs in the most epic way possible!

It's time to grab our backpacks, don our Lara-inspired outfits, and embark on unforgettable adventures that will make us scream "holy artifact!" LOL!

So is this like Dungeons and Dragons but in a Tomb Raider setting? That's such a cool idea! Unfortunately I don't have a group of folks that'd want to play it, but I bet there are loads of TR fans out there who are gonna love this

Really nice to have it all so well made and given for free!

Crystal Dynamics: lol no

A board game nobody asked for:
