For Tomb Raider fans the 14th of February is not just Valentine’s Day but the birthday of their beloved heroine Lara Croft.
Lara was originally born on 14 February 1968 in Wimbledon, London. The original Tomb Raider story was rebooted and revised at least twice over the past 20 years.
Lara Croft was given a revised and new past in Tomb Raider: Legend and the story was completely rebooted with Tomb Raider 2013. The year of her birth was slightly adjusted for Tomb Raider 2013, though. Her date of birth, however, has not changed and remains on February 14.
Happy 50th birthday to one of the most iconic heroines the world has seen so far!
