Lara Croft fans, brace yourselves for her grand return to Fortnite. According to a recent leak, the much-adored adventurer is gearing up for her comeback on March 14. This time, she’s rumored to have a fresh look along with some exciting new gear, including a Back Bling and a pickaxe. Lara joins the ranks of other iconic gaming legends who have recently stepped into Fortnite’s universe, such as Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat, who headlines the current battle pass.
Fortnite’s appeal heavily relies on its character skins, which consistently generate buzz with every new reveal. Over the years, notable characters like Doom Guy from the Doom series and Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher have made their appearance. The game has even embraced more offbeat elements, bringing in bizarre franchises like Skibidi Toilet. But when it comes to iconic female video game characters, few can top Lara Croft, and her return is highly anticipated.
SpushFNBR has suggested that a collaboration featuring Lara Croft is set to launch on March 14. While details are still under wraps, it’s expected that her latest skin will be a departure from her 2021 Fortnite debut. When it drops, players can purchase the skin for 1500 V-Bucks or opt for the bundle that includes a Chirugai pickaxe, a Croft Legacy weapon wrap, a new Rucksack Back Bling, and an Atlantis Scion emote.
In addition to Lara’s return, there’s chatter about a new Tomb Raider-themed Jeep Wrangler Rubicon rolling into both Fortnite and Rocket League on the same day. Costing 2200 V-Bucks, this Jeep bundle will expand Fortnite’s already diverse range of vehicles, offering everything from high-speed sports cars to rugged off-road options.
This season has been a whirlwind of excitement, thanks to the dynamic changes on Fortnite’s main island and its battle pass updates. Each new season introduces an array of characters to the roster. Chapter 6 Season 2 is no different, featuring Sub-Zero as the final tier unlock, which has sparked speculation about which Mortal Kombat character might appear next, with rumors suggesting Scorpion could be on the horizon.
Fortnite continues to evolve, consistently drawing players with its innovative collaborations and ever-expanding universe. As we eagerly anticipate what’s next, one thing is certain: Lara Croft’s return will be a highlight for fans and players alike.
