In a significant release for portable gaming fans, Crystal Dynamics and Aspyr have officially launched Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Nintendo Switch.
This announcement marks the debut of the critically acclaimed action-adventure title on the latest Nintendo hardware, providing both new and veteran players an opportunity to experience Lara Croft’s defining journey on the go. Originally developed by Crystal Dynamics, Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition serves as a remastered version of the 2013 reboot, chronicling the “intense and gritty” origins of Lara Croft.
The story follows Lara as she evolves from a novice explorer into a formidable survivor, relying on her instincts and perseverance to navigate the treacherous landscape of a mysterious, ancient island.
The game has been finely tuned for the Nintendo Switch family of systems, promising seamless portable and docked gameplay. Aspyr, renowned for their expertise in high-quality ports for modern platforms, has ensured that the Switch release bundles all the content from the game’s initial launch.
This definitive package includes every previously released downloadable content pack, such as six exclusive outfits for Lara, eight additional online multiplayer maps, and four unique multiplayer characters.
Notably, multiplayer functionality for up to eight players is fully integrated, allowing gamers to team up or compete in action-packed matches online. Beyond gameplay additions, Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on Switch offers digital bonus content for enthusiasts and collectors.
Players can access digital editions of Dark Horse’s comic "Tomb Raider: The Beginning," delve into the mini-art book "Tomb Raider: The Art of Survival," and enjoy the "Final Hours of Tomb Raider" developer video series, providing a behind-the-scenes look at the game’s creation. The digital version of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is available now globally on the Nintendo eShop for both Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 devices.
To celebrate the launch, Aspyr and Crystal Dynamics are offering a 10% discount on the game until Monday, November 24.
Additionally, players who already own Tomb Raider I–III Remastered or Tomb Raider IV–VI Remastered on Nintendo Switch are eligible for stacking loyalty discounts of 10% each, making it possible to save up to 30% in total. With this release, the Tomb Raider franchise continues to expand its reach to new audiences, leveraging the Nintendo Switch’s portability and multiplayer capabilities.
