It’ll finally come to the big screen next year with Alicia Vikander in the main role, and the film’s first trailer dropped last night. Looking to build off that success, a new film has been brewing for many years. 2013’s Tomb Raider and 2015’s Rise of the Tomb Raider were both critically acclaimed games that played well and returned the franchise to its roots in a way fans responded to. It seemed the franchise might be nearing an end, but the 2010s breathed life back into the series. Alongside these games came the largely forgettable Angelina Jolie films in 20. As time marched on and we moved into the 2000s the quality of the games began to dip. Starting in 1996, the first few games following explorer Lara Croft were hits.
Tomb Raider is a franchise that’s had its ups and downs.
