Here&#8217;s the full exchange about this in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2025\/12\/tomb-raider-definitive-edition-updates-planned-for-switch-platforms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the same interview<\/a> with Nintendo Everything recently:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>This game kicked off the Tomb Raider \u201cSurvivor\u201d trilogy, so we need to ask the obvious question \u2013 is Aspyr interested in bringing over Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider to Nintendo platforms as well?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Aspyr:<\/strong> &#8220;We have definitely seen this question! We\u2019ve successfully brought back the classic era (I-VI) and now the \u2018origin story\u2019 of Lara Croft to modern Nintendo platforms. We can\u2019t announce anything at the moment but the passionate response to this release is strong encouragement for us to continue exploring those possibilities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So, again, there&#8217;s nothing to announce &#8220;at the moment&#8221;, but this response has supposedly given the developer a chance to continue exploring these possibilities. As mentioned, it&#8217;s also got a bit of a history now, having worked on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/tomb_raider_i-vi_remastered\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tomb Raider I-VI<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Aspyr&#8217;s more immediate focus is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2025\/12\/tomb-raider-definitive-edition-updates-planned-for-switch-platforms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">release some improvements<\/a> for Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on the Switch and Switch 2, with Reese adding how the developer wants to provide the &#8220;best possible experience for all players&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The same interview also confirmed Aspyr was &#8220;committed&#8221; to supporting the Switch 2 going forward \u2013 with this platform its primary target on the Nintendo front for future cross-platform releases. And as for the chance of existing Aspyr Switch games getting Switch 2 updates, there&#8217;s &#8220;nothing to announce&#8221; right now, but nothing is necessarily &#8220;off the table these days&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Would you be interested in playing the other games in this series on Nintendo&#8217;s platforms?
