Crystal Dynamics has confirmed that Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis will arrive on Nintendo Switch on February 12, 2027, and pre-orders are now open across digital and retail channels.
The announcement, made via a Crystal Dynamics press release and a Nintendo Direct broadcast on September 9, 2026, outlines multiple purchase options including a Standard Edition, a Deluxe Edition with early access and DLC, and a physical Collector’s Edition slated for retail release.
Background and hands-on impressions
During Summer Game Fest’s Play Days event earlier this year, a hands-on preview of Legacy of Atlantis emphasized that Lara Croft’s core movement and combat—swimming, running and shooting—felt consistent with recent franchise entries.
That preview noted the game’s presentation and mechanics left the team eager to evaluate the final build ahead of launch.
Confirmed release details and platforms
- Release date: February 12, 2027 (Nintendo Switch).
- Platforms and distribution: Nintendo Switch release confirmed; pre-orders are available via the Nintendo eShop and participating retailers.

- Standard Edition: Includes the full Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis game and a Survivor Outfit as a pre-order bonus.
- Deluxe Edition: Contains everything in the Standard Edition, plus 48-hour Early Launch Access (pre-order bonus), the Parisian Fugitive Outfit, and a post-launch DLC story pack.
- Collector’s Edition: A physical Collector’s Edition will be sold through select retailers and includes all Deluxe Edition content in addition to a premium steel case, a Lara Croft statue, a mini art book, a Croft signet pin, and a Triumvirate Talisman keychain.
