Tomb Raider port: quick answers

Do I need to own Tomb Raider?
Yes. TRX needs game files from a copy you own. PlayPorted links only to the project page and never to game files.
Is the Tomb Raider port finished?
Yes, the project calls it playable. Its last update was Sep 2026, and the latest release is trx-1.11.1.
Which systems does it run on?
Windows, macOS and Linux.
Is it an emulator?
No. TRX rebuilds the game's source code, so it runs as a native program instead of through an emulator.
