Lara Croft, the iconic Tomb Raider, is raiding her way into Naraka: Bladepoint! This exciting crossover was revealed during a recent livestream showcasing the upcoming third-anniversary celebration in August. The anniversary event boasts a plethora of new content, including the brand-new map Perdoria and collaborations with popular franchises like Tomb Raider.
The Tomb Raider franchise, launched in 1996, has achieved legendary status in gaming, spawning comics, an upcoming Netflix animated series, and numerous other spin-offs. Lara Croft herself is a globally recognized icon, a highly popular female protagonist featured in crossovers with titles such as Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Fortnite, and Final Fantasy XV.
In Naraka: Bladepoint, Lara's likeness will grace the assassin Matari, the agile Silver Crow, as a new skin. While a preview hasn't been released, judging by past collaborations, the skin will likely encompass a complete outfit, hairstyle, and various accessories. This isn't Naraka: Bladepoint's first crossover, hinting at a high-quality addition for players.
2024: A Monumental Year for Naraka: Bladepoint
The third anniversary is set to be a massive event. Besides the Tomb Raider collaboration, players can anticipate Perdoria, the first new map in almost two years, launching July 2nd. Like Holoroth, Perdoria promises unique challenges, secrets, and gameplay mechanics. A further collaboration with CD Projekt Red's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is also planned for later in the year.
However, alongside the excitement, Naraka: Bladepoint announced the discontinuation of Xbox One support by the end of August. Players shouldn't worry about losing progress; all earned cosmetics and account data will transfer to Xbox Series X/S and PC via the Xbox platform.
