Limited Run Games, a company known for releasing physical editions of popular indie games, has announced exciting news for fans of the Lara Croft series. Instead of releasing a physical version of Tomb Raider I-III Remastered on the Switch, they have decided to offer a hard copy of The Lara Croft Collection. This collection will include Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris.
The physical version of The Lara Croft Collection will be available in two editions. The standard edition will be priced at $39.99 and is estimated to ship in October.

Pre-orders for both editions will go live on 10th May 2024.
For fans willing to splurge on the collector’s edition, there are several exclusive items included. Along with a copy of the game, buyers will receive a special Trapezoid Box, an acrylic standee, soundtrack, steelbook, and art prints. These extra items are sure to delight die-hard Lara Croft enthusiasts.
Limited Run Games has faced criticism in the past, particularly when they were caught shipping 3DO games on CD-Rs. In response to the backlash, the company vowed to “strive to do better” in the future. Despite this controversy, they have continued to cater to niche gaming communities and provide physical releases of beloved titles.
The announcement of The Lara Croft Collection physical release on the Nintendo Switch is sure to excite fans of the series. With the option to choose between a standard edition or a deluxe collector’s edition, there is something for every type of fan. The additional items included in the collector’s edition make it a tempting offer for those looking to expand their Lara Croft memorabilia collection.
