The Tomb Raider series first hit stores in 1996 and has since become the 38th highest-grossing video game franchise of all time. The IP is universally recognized for its Indiana Jones-like adventures and for having one of the most iconic female protagonists in all media. Square Enix's franchise has remained successful for over 20 years thanks to the consistently high quality of Lara Croft's adventures, including the recent reboot trilogy, which featured some of the English archeologist's best games yet.
