Physical video games are a big discussion point right now, especially after the PlayStation announcement that post-2028, they won’t be producing any more. In response, multiple developers, publishers and companies specialising in special, limited physical editions of video games have condemned the move. That’s why, LimitedRunGames’ announcement of a new physical edition of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is only ever a great thing. Full details below.
Per LimitedRunGames:
Lara Croft’s origin story is the stuff of legend, with many of us looking back in awe to the time we were first introduced to the bold adventurer’s majestic survival skills. Tomb Raider Definitive Edition is the critically acclaimed cinematic action adventure that brought her story to life, and thanks to the team at Limited Run Games, it is now being made available for the very first time as a physical edition for Nintendo Switch™ 2, with pre-orders open now.
In this epic expedition that features a stunningly lifelike world, players watch in awe as Lara’s adventure transforms her from an inexperienced thrill-seeker to a hardened fight-ready survivor. Throughout the adventure, an obsessively detailed Lara dives into high-octane combat, customizes her kit, and endures grueling environments to uncover the secrets of the dark, mysterious island she lands upon.
Limited Run Games has created two different physical versions of Tomb Raider Definitive Edition, detailed below:
The Standard Edition contains:
- Tomb Raider Definitive Edition physical game for Nintendo Switch 2, featuring an exclusive game booklet
The Collector’s Edition contains:
- Everything included with the Standard Edition
- A beautiful, tea crate-styled Steelcase to protect your treasured game
- A Pry Axe Keychain, a handy piece of kit to facilitate modern adventures on-the-go
- Soundtrack on CD to allow you to sync up Lara’s life soundtrack with your day to day exploits
- Map of Yamatai so you’ll never get lost along the way, wherever your adventure takes you
