Tomb Raider III: Les Aventures de Lara Croft

Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft is an action-adventure game developed by Core Design and published by Eidos Interactive, the third entry in the Tomb Raider series. The story follows Lara Croft as she pursues four pieces of a meteorite scattered across the world. The game was built on an upgraded engine with improved speed, coloured lighting, and triangular polygons, and was supported by an extensive marketing campaign.

Twelve PAL variants are catalogued across the UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain, covering original and Platinum release types, all in Full Jewel PAL cases on a single disc. The UK uses serial SLES-01649, while France, Germany, Italy, and Spain carry serials SLES-01682 through SLES-01685. Hologram A appears on all original editions and most Platinum variants, while the UK Platinum carries Hologram B on the case. Multiple loose paperwork items have been documented across variants, including Lara Brown Merchandise Catalogues, Eidos registration cards, and various Eidos promotional catalogues in English and German, making this a rich title for completionist collectors. The earliest PAL release was 23 November 1998.
