Lara Croft Joins World of Tanks in a Tactical Adventure

For nearly three decades, Lara Croft has redefined the spirit of adventure. Now, she brings that same fearless energy to an entirely new battlefield: World of Tanks. In the latest Battle Pass Special, Heroes' Paths, Lara takes center stage in her own dedicated Chapter, where precision, agility, and tactical mastery lead the way.

A Chapter All Her Own

In this limited-time event, players can chart their own course through a 30-Stage Chapter inspired by the legendary Tomb Raider herself. Each stage brings new challenges and unlocks themed rewards tied directly to Lara's legacy. These include her exclusive 2D and 3D tank styles, in-game emblems, and a powerful crew member voiced by Keeley Hawes, one of the most iconic voices behind Lara Croft.

Whether it's tombs or tank battles, Lara is ready.

The Vehicle: IMT Medium Tank

At the heart of Lara’s Chapter is the IMT, a Tier VIII U.S. medium tank designed with mobility and finesse in mind. Its slender profile and quick-draw capabilities reflect Lara’s own style: agile, resourceful, and always one step ahead of danger. With its premium status and unique style, the IMT is a versatile force that fits both the battlefield and the adventurer’s mindset.

A New Look for a New Battlefield

Lara’s Chapter comes with a fully customized 3D tank style that reflects her storied career. Expect subtle references to her greatest adventures, with visual details inspired by her gear, travels, and tactical ingenuity. Every element is designed to feel grounded in the Tomb Raider universe, from the weathered cargo crates to relic-style accents and utility tools mounted to the chassis.

These aren’t just cosmetic upgrades. They’re tributes to Lara’s journey as an explorer and strategist, brought into a combat environment that rewards sharp thinking and smart positioning.

Voice and Presence

Lara's in-game presence is brought to life by Keeley Hawes, whose performances have helped define Lara's character for a generation of players. Her voice lines in World of Tanks capture that familiar calm under pressure, with dialogue that honors both the elegance and intensity of her past missions.

For long-time Tomb Raider fans, it’s a rewarding moment to hear her in a completely different setting, yet still unmistakably Lara.

Unlock Her Legacy

To unlock all the Tomb Raider-themed rewards, players simply progress through Lara’s 30-stage Chapter, completing missions and challenges along the way. The Chapter includes:

· A custom 3D style for the IMT tank

· Lara Croft as an in-game crew member with a special skill set

· Unique 2D styles, emblems, inscriptions, and medals

· A premium Tier VIII tank designed for versatile tactical play

Progress can be made in any order, and players can switch Chapters at any time. However, for those who want to focus purely on Lara's rewards, her path is clearly marked and full of rich callbacks for dedicated fans.

Limited-Time Event

This event runs from July 10 to July 21, giving players a window to earn rewards through gameplay. Additional bundles are also available through the in-game store, offering Amanda Evert as a crew member.

A New Kind of Adventure

World of Tanks might be unfamiliar territory, but Lara is no stranger to challenge. Whether it’s navigating ancient ruins or outmaneuvering enemies on a dynamic battlefield, her strengths remain the same: focus, adaptability, and courage.

Her arrival in World of Tanks is more than a crossover. It’s a new way to experience her story, one mission at a time.
