Lara Croft into the Call of Duty-verse
Call of Duty took to their official Twitter account to share an interesting post. It showed Lara Croft standing in a cave, holding her two iconic pistols from the Tomb Raider games. She is looking at the CoD operators parachuting down into a city.

With this post, Call of Duty announced their collaboration with Tomb Raider. If someone said this legendary adventurer would be a playable character in the CoD-verse, it would have felt like a dream a few years back. But it is now a reality thanks to Activation.
All eyes are set on when Lara Croft will be available in Warzone and Modern Warfare II. However, the developers have yet to reveal the release date. Still, given the time of this reveal, it is expected to be released as a part of the Season 5 Reloaded update.
Fans are going crazy over this unique collaboration
This news spread across the internet like a raging wildfire. It didn’t take much time for fans to swarm into the comments to share their excitement. They can’t believe this remarkable partnership between these two renowned franchises is finally taking place.
Call of Duty has faced quite a bit of criticism from its supporters in recent years since the franchise was not meeting the high expectations that fans had of them. Nevertheless, the franchise has redeemed those failures by bringing in Lara Croft, and fans immediately took it in a positive light.
