Lara Croft conquered the secrets of Trinity and her past in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and now the fan favorite gaming icon is coming to the tabletop in a brand new board game. The game is titled Tomb Raider Legends: The Board Game, and puts players in the role of Croft as she raids tombs, discovers ancient secrets, and throws down with anyone who tries to get in her way. Even better news is that the game is going to be released rather soon, as Tomb Raider Legends will hit game stores this May and will retail for $59.99.

The game is designed for 3 to 4 players and will have each player representing Lara Croft. Now we're not sure if this will be a cooperative experience or a more competitive one, but despite each player being Lara you will have some control over which version you get to play.

As you can see in the images below, there are four different character mats, each one holding a different version of Lara. The versions presented are original, revelation, legend, and underworld, each with a different piece of art on the card, though we aren't sure if they will actually differ from each other in stats or abilities.

You can also see the game board, which is split up into several different pieces, each from a different game. The game will be available to preview at PAX East this year and can be seen at the Square Enix booth at the convention.
