A surprise return may be in store for long-time Lara Croft fans. According to a new PlayStation Network update, Tomb Raider: Anniversary could be headed to PS4 and PS5, though it’s unclear if this will be a remaster or a straight port.
PSN update hints at Tomb Raider: Anniversary comeback
The first signs came from a spotted trophy list for Tomb Raider: Anniversary on the PSN. The list features 26 trophies in total, including a platinum, suggesting this isn’t just a casual re-release. Some of the side challenges are reportedly unexpected, adding fuel to the speculation.
Yet, Sony hasn’t made anything official.
Remaster or port? Tomb Raider: Anniversary fans still guessing
This sudden reappearance has sparked debate. Fans are wondering: is this part of a bigger remaster push or simply a port for modern consoles?
Recent rumors point to a Legend Trilogy remaster, including:
- Tomb Raider: Legend
- Tomb Raider: Anniversary
- Tomb Raider: Underworld
If true, this could be part of that package. Still, others fear it’s just a PS4/PS5 port without enhancements.
Sales history may get a rewrite
Although well-liked by fans, it struggled commercially. With just 1.3 million units sold across PC, PS2, and Xbox 360, it remains the franchise’s lowest-selling entry. A new release on current consoles could finally give it a second chance at success.
Tomb Raider: Anniversary deserves modern attention
Unlike many later entries, it focused on atmospheric puzzle-solving and mythic discovery. From ancient temples to prehistoric beasts, it stayed close to the roots of the original game.
If Sony and Crystal Dynamics are indeed bringing it back, modern players may get to experience one of Lara’s most underrated adventures, finally running at the level it always deserved.
All eyes on what comes next
Whether it’s a remaster or a basic port, this move signals renewed attention to older Tomb Raider titles. For now, fans will have to wait and watch, but the clues are stacking up, and Lara rarely returns without a reason.
