Portfolio Pulse from Franca Quarneti
Activision Blizzard Inc (ATVI) has announced that Lara Croft from Tomb Raider will be featured in Call of Duty. This follows the inclusion of other characters and crossovers with artists. The announcement was made on X, formerly known as Twitter. Specific details are not yet disclosed, but players will likely need to purchase a Call of Duty bundle to play as Lara Croft. After Square Enix (SQNX) sold Crystal Dynamics and the Tomb Raider license last year, the future of the series was uncertain. In December, Crystal Dynamics and Amazon.com, Inc.'s (AMZN) Amazon Games revealed its collaboration on a new Tomb Raider game.
