Square Enix to Release ‘Tomb Raider Legends: The Board Game’ This May

Square Enix is dipping their toes into the tabletop gaming market with the upcoming Tomb Raider Legends: The Board Game. In the game, players will each take on the role of Laura Croft as each aims to prove they are the true and legitimate tomb raider. Tomb Raider Legends is for three to four players, ages 13+, plays in around 40 minutes, and will carry an MSRP of 59.99 when it arrives sometime this May.

From Square Enix:

Embark on an unknown journey in search of a hidden artifact as the legendary archaeologist Lara Croft. The path ahead is filled with many perils, but her greatest foe is…none other than herself!?

Prove you are the “true” Lara Croft by exploring mysterious ruins, fending off threats, and using your wits, your ever-growing arsenal, and your skills to beat the competition!

Players start with the simple task of getting to the goal and acquiring the artifact, all while attempting to avoid the constant threat of wounds, delays, and misdirection caused by other players and creatures. Each player will have to overcome these and other environmental obstacles to achieve this task.

With over a dozen possible areas to uncover and a wide variety of combinations, each game will send you and your friends on a fun and unique journey into the unknown.
