Amazon now lists Tomb Raider: Catalyst on Switch 2, and has pushed its release to 2028.
Amazon publishes Catalyst, and its updated post puts the game on four platforms instead of three, according to Insider Gaming, which spotted the change. Insider Gaming argues that if any outlet should know Catalyst’s console plans, Amazon’s own news site should. Neither Nintendo nor Crystal Dynamics has announced a Switch 2 version yet.
On 9 November, Amazon updated its news post on its two Tomb Raider games. Nintendo Life quotes the new wording:
Both games arrive on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and Steam.
Amazon’s updated news post
The original December 2025 version said Catalyst was “set to launch in 2027 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam”, with no Nintendo console.
The date is the bigger change. The update says “Tomb Raider: Catalyst launches in 2028”, a year later than Amazon first promised, and gives no specific day. In July, Amazon gaming chief Jeffrey Gattis pointed to 2028; Amazon’s own post now uses 2028.
Crystal Dynamics has been building Catalyst since 2022 on Unreal Engine 5. Amazon calls it “the largest Tomb Raider game to date”, set across Northern India, with Alix Wilton Regan voicing Lara. Amazon revealed it at The Game Awards in December 2025, alongside Legacy of Atlantis.
Amazon’s listing doesn’t give any resolution, frame rate, or graphics details for Switch 2, and it doesn’t say how the version will differ from the PS5, Xbox, and PC releases. It’s unclear whether it’s a native port or a cloud version, and Amazon hasn’t given a price.
Nintendo players already have a Lara Croft game on the calendar. Legacy of Atlantis, a reimagining of the 1996 original, launches on Nintendo Switch 2 on 12 February 2027, the same day as other versions. Nintendo Life lists it at $49.99 in the US. In October, Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition was shadow-dropped on Switch 2, completing the Survivor Trilogy on the console.
Catalyst would join a growing list of big third-party Switch 2 games.
