Highlights A Tomb Raider fan found a copy of Tomb Raider: Anniversary signed by Ian Livingstone, former head of Eidos Interactive and co-founder of Games Workshop. Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a 2007 remake of the original game and received wide acclaim, although it was the worst selling game in the franchise. While Livingston was not directly involved in the game’s development, his signature on the copy makes it a unique collector’s item possibly worth more than its original price. A Tomb Raider fan has found a copy of Tomb Raider: Eid that appears to have been signed by Sir Ian Livingstone, who headed Eidos at the time. English author and entrepreneur, he co-founded Livingston Warhammer and Warhammer 40K publisher Games Workshop in 1975 and helped create Eidos Interactive in 1995. Released on PC, PS2, Xbox 360 and Wii, Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a 2018 remake 2007 builds on the original Tomb Raider from 1996. Developed in the same engine as 2006’s Tomb Raider: Legend, it sees Lara traveling the world as she searches for the lost city of Atlantis. Eid made many small changes to the gameplay, visual design, and parts of the story, but kept the core of what worked in the original game. However, despite widespread praise from players and critics alike, Tomb Raider: Anniversary was the worst-selling game in the franchise, selling only 1.3 million copies compared to 7 million copies.

The signature is, unfortunately, illegible, so it took the fans a while to figure out who it was exactly. Non-joking suggestions included Tomb Raider: Anniversary’s creative director Jason Botha, or Jonelle Elliott, who voiced Lara Croft in Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation, Tomb Raider: Chronicles, and Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness. However, the community eventually decided that the signature belonged to Livingstone. Livingston is not credited with having played any direct role in the development of 2007’s Tomb Raider: Anniversary, although he was first teased about the game during an interview in May 2006. However, his contribution to the games should not be underestimated, as he played a pivotal role in Created Games Workshop and served as an editor for the company’s White Dwarf magazine. He also co-wrote the successful Fighting Fantasy book series, which combined choose-your-own-adventure storytelling with a tabletop role-playing game. He played a large role in Eidos from the ’90s until 2013. Livingston’s signing may not have been as desired by Tomb Raider fans as someone who worked more directly on the game. However, it’s still enough to make this copy of Tomb Raider: Anniversary a one-of-a-kind collector’s item. Whether it is actually worth the significant amount of money is a matter of conjecture. However, it seems likely that it’s worth a lot more than what the used store is asking. Tomb Raider: Anniversary is available on PC, PS2, PS3, Wii, Xbox 360 and is backwards compatible on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.
