Is Lara Croft Tomb Raider - Anniversary still worth playing in 2026?

A remake of the original Tomb Raider by Crystal Dynamics, Anniversary reinterprets the founding 1996 adventure with Legend's smooth engine, restoring the grandeur of solitary temples and a strong focus on exploration puzzles. The verticality, the chained acrobatics and the majestic sense of solitude regain their power. Combat stays secondary and the difficulty of some puzzles can block progress. An excellent remake to recommend for fans of Lara Croft and contemplative, demanding ruin exploration.
