Which video game directly inspired the story of the 2018 film Tomb Raider?

Tomb Raider (2013) directly inspired the story of the 2018 film Tomb Raider.

The 2018 movie is a reboot of the film series and draws heavily from the 2013 video game reboot. Both versions follow a younger Lara Croft as she travels to a dangerous island while investigating the disappearance of her father, Lord Richard Croft.

The film stars Alicia Vikander as Lara and includes several recognizable elements from the game, such as the shipwreck, survival-focused action, and Lara’s transition from inexperienced adventurer to capable survivor. Roar Uthaug directed the movie.

The film is not a direct adaptation of Rise of the Tomb Raider, although that game was released before the movie and also continues the rebooted Lara’s story. The 2013 title is the specific game most closely linked to the 2018 film’s plot and presentation.
