Lady Lara is hunting for adventure and climbing to the top of the Cosplay charts. We’re uncovering the best of Lara Croft cosplays!

Lara Croft is one of the most dynamic, charismatic characters ever created for a video game franchise. She’s witty and smart, driven and creative. Lara solves every mystery that comes her way. For decades the adventures of the Lady Lara the Tomb Raider have inspired audiences and cosplayers alike.

Since Croft’s debut in 1996’s ‘Tomb Raider’, the character has been a staple role model of strong, independent female characters. She rides harder than the boys, thinks smarter, and is always two steps ahead. The character caught the hearts of players around the world, and a powerhouse franchise was born that has endured for over 25 years and shows no signs of stopping.

Lady Lara Croft is known for her historical knowledge, sharp wit, physical prowess, and her resilience. Though the classic and often admired video game character has been cosplayed by many, it takes someone of equal resilience to put action to the character.

Through multiple games and movies, Lara Crofts adventures have led to many different iterations of her classic dual guns and sunglasses. We’ve covered some amazing cosplays like the Tomb Raider Fitness Model Feature, (likewise the Slave Leia Fitness Models), but Lady Croft is equal parts muscle and agility, charisma and cunning.

 

Through the generations of Tomb Raider games, Lara’s look has evolved time and again. Her iconic thigh holsters, double guns, sunglasses and long braid are all staples of the character. For cosplayers, these provide the base that Tomb Raider cosplays build upon, and everyone takes a different approach to her Cosplay.
