Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Gets Official Russian Dub and Broad Availability
The long awaited Tomb Raider I-III Remastered collection has finally released, delivering the beloved Lara Croft adventures with upgraded graphics and enhanced audio. For fans, the big news is the inclusion of an official Russian voice track produced by the GamesVoice studio, bringing the iconic heroine’s journeys to life in a new language layer. The update was confirmed by the DTF portal as part of the remaster package.
Players can grab the collection across multiple digital storefronts, including Steam, GoG, and the Epic Games Store, for PC. Console enthusiasts can enjoy it on Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch. Unlike some fan-made projects, this voice track is embedded directly into the games. No extra downloads or files are required to access the Russian dub.
GamesVoice itself celebrated the milestone, noting that this marks the first time the classic trilogy has benefited from a professional Russian dub. The company expressed pride in its involvement, highlighting the collaboration with the developers as a significant achievement for the project.
Following an announcement in the GamesVoice VK community, fans pressed for more details on how the localizing process was conducted. The studio admitted there were limits to what could be shared, but a subscriber suggested that the developers might have approached GamesVoice with a localization request, to which the studio replied that this would be a reasonable interpretation of events.
On the GamesVoice site, a full roster of project participants is listed. The team includes curator Yaroslav Egorov, director Sergei Hogarth, voice artist Elena Solovyova as Lara Croft, and translator Daria Firsova. The project involved more than twenty people in total, all contributing to the dubbing effort to ensure a polished and authentic experience for Russian-speaking players.
Critical and fan reception to the Tomb Raider I-III Remastered collection has been positive. Metacritic shows an overall score of 79 out of 100, reflecting a balance of appreciation for the visual upgrades and the enduring charm of the core gameplay. Steam reviews have reflected overwhelming support, with a high percentage of positive feedback as reported by the platform.
In related news, industry observers have noted that major publishers continue to expand their subscription offerings and services. For example, discussions have circulated about the potential addition of titles like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and the latest Need for Speed to Sony’s PlayStation Plus lineup, signaling a broader trend toward enhanced value through digital subscriptions and curated game libraries. These movements indicate how remasters and localized content sit within a wider strategy to reach audiences across regions and languages, including Canada and the United States, where fans increasingly expect high-quality localizations alongside robust platform availability.
Overall, the Tomb Raider I-III Remastered release strengthens Lara Croft’s presence in modern game catalogs. The official Russian dub, produced by GamesVoice, adds another layer of accessibility and immersion for Russian-speaking players while preserving the original trilogy’s adventurous spirit. For players in North America and beyond, the collection provides a refreshed entry point to a landmark series, now with a new voice cast that complements the classic gameplay and storytelling that fans have cherished for years.
