Tense situation at Amazon with the announcement a few days ago 14,000 layoffs aiming to “reduce bureaucracy” within the company. Unfortunately, it was the gaming subsidiary with Amazon Games that was most impacted by this with the studios of Irvine and San Diego which undergo significant workforce reductions.
Following this decision, the MMORPG game New World vto be gradually abandoned. Although the game’s servers will continue to operate for some time, the title will no longer receive updates and new features. Obviously, Lara Croft still narrowly escapes complications and the development of the next Tomb Raider would once again be spared.
Tomb Raider development continues
It’s been several years now since the next game Tomb Raider should have revealed itself. However, as the end of 2025 quickly approaches, we still have no news about the next game. After apparently escaping layoffs at Embracer Group, then at Crystal Dynamics, the next game Tomb Raider would not be not impacted by the numerous layoffs at Amazon Games.
According to an internal memo from Steve Boom, executive at Amazon, the development of the next Tomb Raider continues alongside Crystal Dynamics. No information has been disclosed, we only know that the project is still in progress. In this same note, Boom confirms that Maverick Games and Amazon would continue to work on an open-world driving simulator (which has not yet been announced), and that the Montreal studio of Amazon Games would complete the development of March of Giants.
While this new game Tomb Raider should have been announced for over a yearinformation is slow to arrive. As of now, the only information we know is that the next game should offer a single-player adventure, with the Unreal Engine 5. According to many rumors and fan hypotheses, we should have a Lara Croft who would resume his appearance from the first games with his famous blue tank top, his brown mini-shorts, his two 9 mm pistols and his legendary backpack.
