The new Tomb Raider tells the story of Lara's early years (pre-archaeologist) and the trials she endures which created the strong, rugged adult she is more popularly known as.
The game was first announced late 2010 and is expected to be released on March 5, 2013. Tomb Raider has been confirmed for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

When will Tomb Raider be released ?
After a short delay from fall 2012, Tomb Raider is set for release on March 5th 2013.
Which platforms will Tomb Raider be available on?
Tomb Raider has been announced for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, with the possibility of also coming to Mac operating systems. There are currently no plans for a Wii U version.
Will there be a collector's edition available for Tomb Raider?
Currently, nothing of the sort has been announced. Global brand manager Karl Stewart has mentioned plans of releasing a collector's edition, but the details on what will be included haven't yet been revealed.
Where will Tomb Raider take place?
While the exact location isn't specified, Tomb Raider will take place on an island.
What's the plot for Tomb Raider?
While this new game shares the same name as the original that came out in 1996, Crystal Dynamic's Tomb Raider is an altogether new game that focuses on Lara Croft's earlier, more naive years -- her origin story. The Lara Craft portrayed in this game is much more vulnerable to the idea of survival and wilderness. The beginning moments of the game immediately catapult Lara into the maw of danger; she finds herself marooned on an unfamiliar island, where she must now use whatever survival skills she picks up along the way to make it out alive.

Is this reboot a prequel to Lara's later adventures?
According to Crystal Dynamics' Karl Stewart, Tomb Raider not only features a 21-year-old Lara Croft but also entirely new canon. Lara's previous adventures are considered isolated adventures and are in no way connected to this upcoming Tomb Raider reboot.
Will there be other returning characters?
Lara's trusty butler Winston won't be around to attend to the Croft Manor, since the island won't be particularly hospitable.
What kind of game is Tomb Raider?
Some have described Tomb Raider to be a survival horror game, but not in the typical definition of the term. It's survival horror in the sense that the people, the places, and the world are unfamiliar and uninviting.
For certain, Lara is fighting for survival on this island; the place is filled with hostile creatures who very much want to tear Lara up, and creates an environment that isn't for the weak and gutless.
Tomb Raider may be compared to the Uncharted franchise, although the latter itself was modeled after the original Tomb Raider game (where players take the role of a maverick treasure hunter going into exotic locales).

The team at Crystal Dynamics have done DLC before, and the first downloadable content will be available on the Xbox 360 exclusively first. Unlockables like different outfits for Lara remain unconfirmed.
