Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is one of the most anticipated games of 2027, and new behind-the-scenes videos reveal how developers are reimagining Lara Croft in Unreal Engine 5. The remake of the iconic 1996 original promises expanded environments, modernized gameplay, and a new look for Lara that fans actually love.
Fluid Movement and Acrobatics
The latest video focuses on Lara's enhanced traversal movement, including iconic athletic moves like cartwheels, handstands, and swan dives. Creative director Michał Kuk emphasizes the importance of subtle animations that make climbing feel uniquely Lara—how fast she jumps, how far she leaps, and the dynamics of her movements.
Attention to Detail
Principal technical game designer Grzegorz Grzywacz highlights subtle details like Lara turning her head while climbing to indicate she's being pursued. Actor Alix Wilton Regan underwent weight training, running, and rock climbing to prepare for the role, bringing movie-level authenticity to the performance.
