Aspyr pulled off another shadow drop — Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration landed on Switch 2 during the June Nintendo Direct with no prior announcement.
It's the second entry in the Survivor Trilogy, and Nintendo Life's review calls it the crown jewel of the three games. The port follows Aspyr's earlier surprise release of the 2013 Tomb Raider reboot on both Switch 1 and Switch 2, which itself sparked immediate speculation about the rest of the trilogy.
Whether Shadow of the Tomb Raider ever makes the jump to Switch 2 is still an open question, but this release makes it feel considerably more likely than it did before.
