Tomb Raider's Lara Croft joins Hero Wars for a limited-time event
Tomb Raider's Lara Croft has made the jump to mobile RPG Hero Wars.
Starting today, players of Hero Wars will be able to obtain the popular video game character for free until May 26. An event trailer can be seen below.
A synopsis for this special event reads:
Wielding her signature dual pistols, Lara Croft brings reliable, rapid, ranged damage to any party in Hero Wars. She's capable of channeling the power of ancient artifacts to tear through the ranks of any monsters that would get between her and the next ruin to explore. Dedicated players will also be able to unlock several alternate outfits for Lara Croft, letting the acrobatic adventurer archaeologist dress to impress.
Despite its enduring popularity (with over 7 million active players every month), this event is the first of its kind since Hero Wars launched in 2016. GDEV portfolio studio Nexters are thrilled to be working alongside Crystal Dynamics with a character as truly iconic as Lara Croft. We've got all our best tombs and shiniest treasures set out for her visit - she's practically videogame royalty, after all!
Hero Wars is available to play on mobile phones and on desktop right now. More information about the game can be found here.
