Amazon Game Studios has confirmed that Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis — a ground-up remake of the original Tomb Raider — will release on Nintendo Switch 2 alongside PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on February 12, 2027.
The announcement arrives as part of broader coverage around the title and follows the long-running franchise’s origins with the 1996 release on Sega Saturn, PlayStation and PC.
According to Amazon’s announcement, Legacy of Atlantis is a complete reimagining of Lara Croft’s defining adventure.
The studio said the Switch 2 edition will be fully optimized for Nintendo’s next console and deliver the same cinematic scale and fluid gameplay experienced on other platforms.
In journalistic terms, Amazon indicated that Switch 2 players should expect a fully optimized build that preserves the title’s cinematic presentation and core gameplay responsiveness across platforms.
The remake is built on Unreal Engine 5 and expands the classic story with new connective elements that link Lara Croft’s early exploits to her future.
Amazon’s press materials describe an expanded campaign that sends players through diverse locales — from Peruvian jungles to crumbling Greek ruins, Egyptian deserts and an enigmatic island — and retools the original’s mechanics for modern hardware.
Core features highlighted by the publisher include acrobatic traversal using grappling tools, environmental puzzles that manipulate ancient mechanisms, and combat against wildlife, mercenaries and mythological threats using Lara’s signature arsenal.
Industry context: the original Tomb Raider debuted in 1996 on Sega Saturn, PlayStation and PC, establishing Lara Croft as a major gaming icon.
Modern re-releases and ports of Tomb Raider games have reached Nintendo platforms before; previous Switch ports of Tomb Raider titles prompted discussion about performance on Nintendo hardware.
Amazon’s messaging frames Legacy of Atlantis as a ground-up remake engineered for current-generation consoles, including Nintendo’s next hardware.
Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is scheduled to launch on February 12, 2027 for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2.
Developers and publishers will likely provide additional technical and platform-specific details as the release window approaches.
