Evercade revealed this week they've once again teamed up with Crystal Dynamics to release a second Tomb Raider collection for their retro console system. The aptly named Tomb Raider Collection 2 contains two specific titles, as you're getting Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation and Tomb Raider: Chronicles, as well as The Times Bonus Level that PC players got in 2000, along with a full-color manual and a cartridge compatible with all their retro console models. We have more details below as the collection arrives this April. Meanwhile, Collection 1 is still available with the first three games in the series.

As milestones in one of the most beloved gaming franchises of all time, both games showcase the creative ingenuity, gripping narratives, and intricate level design that helped define Lara Croft as a cultural icon. Fans can once again immerse themselves in the atmospheric puzzles and high-stakes action that made these titles groundbreaking when first released in their original 32-bit form, with performance improvements optimizing the experience for Evercade players and those playing on modern displays.

For the first time on a 32-bit platform, this collection also includes the exclusive bonus level originally distributed via The Times Newspaper. This rare level, set in a mysterious Egyptian tomb, has been faithfully converted to this cartridge, making it accessible to console players for the very first time. This cartridge will be part of the red-colored home console line and be numbered #45. The price of this cartridge is £24.99, $29.99, and €29.99, and it will be released in April 2025, with pre-orders opening on February 28, 2025, through all Evercade retailers.
