Tomb Raider LAU remaster in development for 30th anniversary, It's claimed.

Tomb Raider LAU remaster in development for 30th anniversary, It's claimed. A new rumor suggests that Aspyr may be working on a Tomb Raider project tied to the franchise's 30th anniversary, with speculation pointing toward a remaster of the LAU trilogy. The claim comes from Society of Raiders, a source that has previously shared Tomb Raider related information. In a recent post, the account stated, "Tomb Raider is collaborating once more with Aspyr, publishers of Tomb Raider I-VI Remastered for the series' 30th anniversary." It added, "We hope to see the LAU trilogy remastered and preserved on modern platforms to complete the series before ushering in the new era of the franchise." While not an explicit confirmation, the comments have fueled speculation that a remaster covering Tomb Raider Legend, Anniversary, and Underworld could be in development. Additional attention has been drawn from recent activity on official channels. The Tomb Raider social media account acknowledged the 20th anniversary of Tomb Raider Legend this week, while earlier posts referencing Tomb Raider Underworld had already led some to suspect renewed interest in the trilogy. The timing of such a release could also align with other reported developments surrounding the franchise. Separate rumors have suggested that Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis may have been delayed to February 2027, potentially leaving room for a remaster project to fill the gap. If accurate, a remaster of the LAU trilogy would follow Aspyr's previous work on Tomb Raider I-VI Remastered, continuing efforts to bring older entries in the series to modern platforms. Neither Aspyr nor Crystal Dynamics has officially confirmed any new remaster project at this time.

Deus Ex isn't getting a new game because its owners are "psychopaths", says series' lead voice actor

Deus Ex isn't getting a new game because its owners are "psychopaths", says series' lead voice actor. Another year gone, another long wait for a Deus Ex game that will never come. While Aspyr Media is still working on the controversial Deus Ex Remastered, there's currently no plans for a new game in the series. Confirmed by voice actor Elias Toufexis, who played the iconic protagonist Adam Jensen in Human Revolution and Mankind Divided, there will not be a new Deus Ex game anytime during 2026. In a thread on Twitter, Toufexis shared a post of his upcoming projects throughout 2026. Alongside Bungie's Marathon, which launches in March, Toufexis shared three NDA icons to show his still unannounced projects. This led to some fans speculating over a new game in the Deus Ex series which Toufexis immediately rebuked. A new Deus Ex game was in development at developer Eidos Montreal between 2022 and 2024, but was cancelled by publisher Embracer Group. Unfortunately, that title seemingly did not feature the character of Adam Jensen. In a post on Reddit back in 2024, Toufexis explained that they were not approached to return to the series, and that Adam Jensen's story was seemingly "done". "As you guys all know, Jensen is one of the characters I've played who is near and dear to my heart. It seems I will always be associated with him and that's just fine with me," the actor said. "Alas, his story seems done. I'm relatively certain the game that was canceled was not an Adam Jensen story, so the cancellation angers me more than anything else because friends at Eidos got laid off. Videogame companies right now are in a weird place. I hope it gets straightened out." The last new Deus Ex game to release was 2016's Mankind Divided, a game which was famously cut in half before release. Ending on a cliffhanger, it seems that fans will never get to experience the second half of Jensen's story.

The now-settled KOTOR 2 lawsuit saw accusations of demonic possession and the plaintiffs' lawyer hitting back at Aspyr with Lil Wayne lyrics: 'Okay you're a goon, but what's a goon to a Goblin? Nothin. Nothin. You ain't scaring nothing.'

The now-settled KOTOR 2 lawsuit saw accusations of demonic possession and the plaintiffs' lawyer hitting back at Aspyr with Lil Wayne lyrics: 'okay you're a goon, but what's a goon to a Goblin? Nothin. Nothin. You ain't scaring nothing.' Aspyr also had what it believed to be vital trade secrets redacted from documents. The strange case of the gamer's lawsuit against Aspyr was resolved earlier this month. The suit, which saw a fan upset at the studio's "false advertising" after DLC based on KOTOR 2's Restored Content Mod failed to materialise as part of its Nintendo Switch port, culminated in a settlement between Aspyr and the gamers who brought the suit to bear. The settlement put an end to a two-and-a-half year-long saga which as recently reported by Game File, took some wild twists and turns as it wended its way through court. At various stages, the suit witnessed accusations of demonic possession, lawyers throwing down Lil Wayne lyrics, and Aspyr desperately trying to conceal what it believes to be vital trade secrets. The lawsuit kicked off in late summer 2023, with gamer Malachi Mickelonis suing Aspyr for alleged consumer fraud after feeling "completely duped" the company, who had released KOTOR 2 on Switch in 2022. In a YouTube trailer for the port, Asypr had briefly noted that a DLC built using the Restored Content Mod would be coming to Switch in Q3 that year. However, this DLC failed to materialise and was ultimately cancelled. Mickelonis was represented by former corporate lawyer Ray Kim, and things got weird pretty quickly. In November that year, Aspyr's lawyers argued to have the case withdrawn, believing that California's Central District Court should sanction Kim and pay their legal fees. Kim responded to this with a filing that appealed to the power of hip-hop to make its point: "Tunechi, a.k.a. Lil Wayne, once declared 'Okay, you're a goon, but what's a goon to a Goblin??? Nothing. Nothing. You ain't scaring nothing." The filing helpfully pointed out that Aspyr "and its council are the goons". Kim and his client, naturally, were the goblins, with the filing emphasising that said gobbos "will not be deterred." Game File notes that this period saw Kim and Aspyr's lawyers sparring "from one filing to the next". In one such filing, Kim claims that one of Aspyr's legal representatives began yelling at his client "[a]s if possessed by a demon". Said representative, attorney Keith Scully who works for the legal firm Newman, stated in an email that he had raised his voice during the conversation to return it to "productive discussion." Aspyr, meanwhile, made several interesting arguments in defence of their position. Initially, the main point of its defence was that, when the DLC was cancelled, Asypr offered a free game as compensation for the DLCs, which it claimed nullified the accusation of false advertising. But this failed to sway the judge. Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.
