Lara Croft: Guardian of Light is bringing the ruins-exploring heroine back to mobile next month

• Rage against the god of death and misfortune
• Gamepad support and customisable touch controls
• Landing on iOS and Android on February 27th

If you’ve always been a fan of dungeon-exploring adventures with a protagonist who doesn’t seem to have any sense of danger, then Feral Interactive’s latest announcement should be right up your alley. In particular, Lara Croft: Guardian of Light will be landing on mobile this February 27th, which means the titular heroine is back and, once again, seemingly unfazed by the dangers of the world around her.

In Lara Croft: Guardian of Light, you can look forward to an isometric platforming puzzler where you’ll leap, roll, and slide your way across Mexican jungles littered with dangerous traps. From toxic swamps to hordes of the undead, there doesn’t seem to be any limit to the obstacles standing in your way – all in a day’s work for THE Lara Croft.

Now, since you’re going up against Xolotl, the god of death and misfortune, you’ll be happy to know that the touchscreen controls are fully customisable – or if you fancy something a bit more console-like, there’s always the platformer’s gamepad support to give you a helping hand.
