It’s been a great start to 2024 so far, but we are soon set to return to the glory days of 90s gaming. Lara Croft is one of the greatest video game characters of all time and she remains an icon largely thanks to her epic adventures back on the PS1. To relive her best-ever journeys, here you will find the Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered trilogy release date and time countdown for PS5, PC, Xbox, and Switch.
Miss Lara Croft has recently appeared in Call of Duty and Magic The Gathering, and she remains the most popular crossover skin in Fortnite of all time. While she has been traveling to the realms of other video game properties, the excellent news is that her next solo adventure is officially in development at Crystal Dynamics with Amazon as the publishing partner.
Tomb Raider 12 is set to be massive as it will unify all timelines between Original, Legend, and Survivor. There are supposed leaks from the past that have us very worried, but, for the time being, we officially know very little about TR12. Fortunately, as we await its long-anticipated reveal, we can all enjoy Lara Croft’s three best-ever games with the Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered trilogy.
Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered trilogy release date
The release date for the Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered trilogy is February 14th. This is a very special day in the TR fandom as it is actually Lara Croft’s canonical birthday. Classic Lara Croft was born on February 14th, 1968, meanwhile, Legend Lara was born in 1977, and the new survivor Lara was born in 1992. They all share Valentine’s Day as their birth date.
Lara Croft’s first-ever game came out in October 1996, so it’s basically been 27 years since. The original TR remains one of the most iconic PS1 games of all time as it was many people’s introduction to the world of video games alongside other epics such as Metal Gear Solid 1. TR Anniversary was a divisive remake of Lara’s first adventure, but we are getting a remaster of the original 1996 experience.
When does the Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered trilogy come out?
The release date and time for when the Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered trilogy will come out is 9 PM PT on February 13th, as well as 12 AM ET and 12 AM GMT on February 14th. These hours are for PS4 and PS5, and they come courtesy of the PSN store countdown. Xbox One and Series X/S share the same launch hours according to the Microsoft store.
Unfortunately, there is no countdown shared on Steam as the game’s page currently says ‘this game plans to unlock in approximately 2 days’. We will update this page when the Steam countdown begins. There is no release time shared on the Nintendo eShop either, but it does come out on February 14th for Switch, too.

Preload and download size
You can preload the remastered package from February 12th for PS4 and PS5. This comes courtesy of PlayStationSize on Twitter. As you’d expect, the download size isn’t very big at all as on PlayStation it only weighs 7.365 GB on PS4 and 3.963 GB on PS5. If you have a PS5, we recommend downloading the PS4 version as it comes with platinum trophies, unlike the PS5 package.
Pre-order bonuses
There are no pre-order bonuses for the package at all. Everyone will get all of the included content whether they buy ahead of launch or not. Some of the key features of the remaster listed on the PlayStation Blog include enhanced visuals, the option to switch between modern and classic tank controls, over 200 trophies to unlock, and all of the iconic costumes with the benefit of photo mode.
