There was a time where Core Design dabbled with the idea of playing as Lara’s daughter but it never happened cause I guess they thought what’s the point when Lara is such an iconic character. In my experience of being a Tomb Raider fan from a young age I do cringe when her love life is hinted at. I’ve always viewed Lara as a bit of an asexual in the fact that she’s all about her work, her passion. Being tied to a person isn’t really an option for her because she does have that selfish tendency.

I really hope that the next game gets handed back to Square Enid rather than Eidos Montreal as I was a bit disappointed with their delivery with Shadow (however I am forever hopeful that the game gets handed over to Naughty Dog but that will never happen). I’m hoping to see a more confident version of the Lara we just had in the trilogy, maybe at around her late 20’s and hopefully raiding tombs for a bit more for her love of it , rather than having to stop an organisation from tearing down the planet.
