We’re still 8 months away from the release of Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis but that isn’t stopping the folks behind the game from getting us excited for the February 12. 2027 release. Today we’re taking a look at a new behind-the-scenes video focussing on one of the games most important locations.
Co-developed with Flying Wild Hog and built in Unreal Engine 5, Legacy of Atlantis is a complete reimagining of the 1996 original Tomb Raider. From your first plunge into Peru’s Lost Valley to your first glimpse at the crumbling ruins of Greece, every environment has been expanded with stunning new visuals, an immersive soundscape, and modernized gameplay that makes exploration, combat, and puzzles feel fresh.
In this new video members of the games development team dive deep into the process of recreating Peru, taking inspiration from both the original Tomb Raider and 2007 remake, Tomb Raider: Anniversary. We also hear from Lara Croft herself, Alix Wilton Regan, about bringing the classic locations and puzzles back for a brand new adventure.
Watch the full behind-the-scenes video in the player below:
In Peru’s Lost Valley, the puzzles have been rebuilt from the ground up. Where the original moved you from one self-contained room to the next, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis opens those spaces into semi-connected environments you can traverse, explore, and approach from new angles. Every space is designed as a real place first, rich with secrets, collectibles, and resources to reward those who go looking. Even returning favorites like the cog puzzle come back reimagined and grounded in the world around them. The result is a Peru brought fully to life, with the scope, history, and personality to make every iconic moment unforgettable.
