Following the Embracer Group agreement to buy Eidos Montreal, Square Enix Montreal and Crystal Dynamics from Square Enix, the company shared a schedule for the Tomb Raider franchise. The Tomb Raider has sold 88 million units since its inception in 1996, with 38 million of its lifetime sales coming from the Reboot Trilogy alone, which includes Tomb Raider (2013), Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider. In addition, the franchise saw more than 53 million paid mobile downloads from holdings such as Lara Croft: Relic Run and Lara Croft: Go. Embracer Group’s Tomb Raider timetable reveals that the Tomb Raider has 88 million units since its launch in 1996. The schedule shows other Tomb Raider games such as Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and spinoffs Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, as well as games before the 2013 reboot, including Tomb Raider: Legend, Tomb Raider: Anniversary and Tomb Raider: Underworld. Crystal Dynamics studio head Scot Amos explains that the Tomb Raider brand is strong, saying: “This only looks at games. We still have a whole world of transmedia out there known for movies, new series coming, comics and quests. As for the possibilities for this franchise, I tell you that the best is yet to come. “ Last month, Crystal Dynamics announced that it is currently working on a new Tomb Raider game that uses Unreal Engine 5.
