Both of these Tomb Raider games are top-down action games that can be played alone or with other people. In Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, Lara and Totec look for the Mirror of Smoke and deal with Xolotl and his minions. In addition to solving puzzles, you’ll have to find your way through the ruin and fight bosses. It first debuted in 2010.

Meanwhile, the second upcoming Tomb Raider Switch game is a bit more recent. Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris showed up in 2014. It offers a similar gameplay, but ups the number of possible co-op players to four. Lara, Carter, Horus, and Isis are looking for Osiris’ fragments in Egyptian ruins. If they don’t find them, Set will take over the world.

As for Feral Interactive, it’s worked on Switch ports before. In 2019, it prepared Alien Isolation and GRID Autosport for the system.

Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris will be the first Tomb Raider Switch games and appear in 2022. Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is also available on the PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Android and Apple iOS devices, and Google Stadia. Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris can be found on the PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Google Stadia.
