Widely anticipated, the game suffered a delayed release from late 2012 to March 2013. Camilla Luddington was announced to voice and perform as Lara Croft in 2010, replacing Keeley Hawes. Tomb Raider is set on Yamatai, an island from which Lara, who is untested and not yet the battle-hardened explorer she is in other titles in the series, must save her friends and escape while being hunted down by a malevolent cult. Rather than a sequel, the team decided to completely reboot the series, re-establishing the origins of Lara Croft for the second time, as they did with Tomb Raider: Legend.
