Rumors suggest that remakes of two beloved PS1 classic adventure games are in the works for the PS5. The titles are Tomb Raider 2 from 1997 and Tomb Raider 3 from 1998, which were originally exclusive to PlayStation. It’s believed they will receive comprehensive remakes following recent Next-Gen remasters.
This information comes from French outlet PS Inside, which has a respectable reputation for gaming rumors. They report that Flying Wild Hog has been commissioned to develop these remakes. The studio is already working on a remake of the first Tomb Raider, titled Legacy of Atlantis.
According to PS Inside, the development of these remakes will move forward regardless of the release status of Legacy of Atlantis. The rumor hints that the team may be co-developing these projects, although that isn’t confirmed. Until official announcements are made, it’s wise to treat this as speculation. The only confirmed remake set for release is Legacy of Atlantis, arriving on February 12, 2027.
An official description of Legacy of Atlantis promises “the ultimate adventure experience with a stunning reimagining of Lara Croft’s 1996 breakthrough game.” It boasts cutting-edge visuals powered by Unreal Engine 5, modern gameplay mechanics, and new surprises, all while respecting the original’s atmosphere and spirit.
