About Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft

Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft is a platform and third-person shooter game developed by Core Design and published by Eidos Interactive. It is the third installment in the Tomb Raider series and the sequel to Tomb Raider II. The gameplay system is similar to the one implemented in the previous game. Lara's abilities include running, jumping, climbing, swimming, rolling, crouching, crawling, sprinting, and swinging on bars and vines. A few new types of hazards have been added in this installment, including cold water in which Lara can swim for a limited amount of time, dangerous underwater creatures (such as piranhas), and the treacherous quicksand, which will swallow the heroine if the player isn't careful and fast enough to prevent her from falling into it.

Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft port: quick answers

Do I need to own Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft?
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 III: Adventures of Lara Croft 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.
