Square-Enix is hoping to shake things up in a more dramatic fashion with the series' next installment, dubbed simply "Tomb Raider."
As always, Lara will have a slightly different appearance (though almost certainly as curvaceous and prone to wearing skintight, skimpy outfits), but this time we'll learn a bit more about how she became the icon she is today.
"After a brutal storm destroys the boat she was traveling on, a frightened young woman is left washed ashore on an unknown beach. On her own but not alone, she has only one goal, to survive," the company announced in a statement revealing the game.
Right now, there's not a lot of other information available - including when the game will be out and on which platforms you'll be able to play it. The January issue of Game Informer will have full details.
"Forget everything you knew about Tomb Raider," said Darrell Gallagher, who heads the game's developer, Crystal Dynamics. "We are exploring things that have never been done before in this game."
That's something you might want to take with a grain of salt. Tomb Raider is hardly the first reboot for the series, which has sold more than 35 million copies to date.
