'''Tomb Raider Legend''' is the official title of '''Tomb Raider 7'''. It has not been released yet.

This time it's [[Crystal Dynamics]] who are making the game. After the Tomb Raider 6 fiasco [[Eidos]] felt that it was time to make a few changes. Core Design was sacked and Crystal Dynamics took charged to help bring Lara back to her roots. And [[Toby Gard]] is also back working with Lara.
