Netflix Concludes Animated Tomb Raider With Season 2 Release on Dec. 11

The franchise next moves to Amazon’s live-action adaptation alongside a coordinated game effort.

Overview

  • Season 2 premiered December 11 on Netflix, with all eight episodes now streaming.
  • The drop closes the series after two seasons and 16 episodes, a finality reported in advance by Variety.
  • The new season tracks a global pursuit involving African Orisha masks and an enigmatic billionaire, with Hayley Atwell returning as Lara Croft and Karen Fukuhara as Sam.
  • Early reviews praise the action, animation, and Lara’s growth while flagging rushed pacing and underused supporting characters.
  • Coverage notes Netflix gave no reason for ending the show, with reports pointing to modest viewership and weak audience scores, as the brand transitions to Amazon’s Sophie Turner–led live-action series and a Tomb Raider reveal slated for The Game Awards; separate casting chatter remains unconfirmed.
