Lara Croft: Guardian of Light relaunched on iOS and Android, available now

Lara Croft fans, rejoice! The beloved 2010 classic, Lara Croft: Guardian of Light, has been revamped and is now available on iOS and Android devices. This twin-stick shooter brings Lara Croft into a thrilling action-packed adventure, allowing you to choose between the iconic tomb raider herself or her ally, the immortal Mayan warrior Totec.

During what might be considered Lara Croft's dark ages—a period when the series took a brief hiatus—Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light emerged as a bold reinvention. Now, fans can dive back into this nostalgic gem right in the palm of their hands on mobile devices.

In Lara Croft: Guardian of Light, Lara teams up with Totec to prevent the unleashing of an ancient evil. This cooperative gameplay extends to both local and online multiplayer, courtesy of Feral Interactive. While the game leans heavily into action, it doesn't skimp on puzzles. Players can expect classic parkour challenges and cerebral trap-laden puzzles that will test your problem-solving skills. Beyond the action, the game offers diverse environments to explore, from toxic swamps to endless tombs and volcanic caverns.

Feral Interactive, known for their exceptional mobile adaptations such as Alien: Isolation, continues to set the gold standard. Even their controversial remaster of Total War: Rome managed to impress with its mechanics, proving that when it comes to classics, pleasing everyone is a tall order.
