Tomb Raider/Hitman/Kane & Lynch/Mindseye/First Light - Timeline

[Megatron]

So since the Disappearence of our friend @Lucid_Dreamer (and we hope that he can return someday), I decided to make a Tomb Raider Timeline on a possible full franchaise order. In honor of the brand and to Lucid's hard work!

The main inspirations comes from 3 great timelines, as i leave here the links and ofc the credits goes to their original Creators!

Tomb Raider Timeline/Playing orders

Given the recent announcement of the "remastered" trilogy I thought it would be a good time to put up the Tomb Raider timeline. Until recently the games were treated as having three distinct timelines, Classic, Legend and Survivor. However, during the 25th Anniversary it was announced that...

To mark the 25th Anniversary of the Tomb Raider series, we chart Lara Croft's history through games, comic books and more.

As the 3rd timeline above, made by Square Enix I'm considering the LAU Trilogy as part of the Classic Era.

And for the Dates set that we're using it's the Classic Era dates.

Hitman is easy to date thanks to the Hard dates the series has.

and Kane & Lynch is set in the same universe as Hitman and Tomb Raider thanks to documents and a DLC so it's placed here too.

Will you be adding the Hitman series and James Bond: First Light when you are done with the Tomb Raider games and movies?

first light no for now, since we don't know if it's set in the same continuity as Hitman.

So since the Disappearence of our friend @Lucid_Dreamer (and we hope that he can return someday),

I have been summoned.....


hey, sorry life got crazy busy with studying, moving working everything. Ive only just got around to starting Last Revelation and it looks like I might be computerless again very shortly soon! I still plan to continue on its just... yeah life

Cool idea about creating a shared Hitman/Tomb Raider timeline. I didnt realise these series shared the same universe

Yeah One of the Lara Croft series game has a DLC with Kane & Lynch. Kane & Lynch in return Is set in the Hitman universe.

Don't forget Home Alone and Detective Pikachu! (Please do forget that... y'know, I could totally do a Home Alone timeline actually)

what are the connections between the 2?

Between Hitman and Home Alone or Home Alone and Detective Pikachu?

thanks for tge tip, and if you want to doo one, you can!

It means nothing to the Pokémon Universe, but means everything to the generation – my generation – that's slightly older than the Pokémon generation.

Y'know, this doesn't actually invalidate Home Alone being the same universe. They're talking about who the reference is meaningful for, and it doesn't mean anything to the Pokémon canon.

They did get it licensed and they would have had to actually make the film in-universe, and since it was made identically... that means that Detective Pikachu and Home Alone were an identical universe for at least the making of that movie.

thanks for tge tip, and if you want to doo one, you can!

It'd be easy. I'd also include that web series where Kevin becomes a crazy killer of home invaders. At least Marv and Harry survived his assault so that they could appear in that Christmas advert.

 

[Megatron]

they showed mindseye, and they said that there will be a crossover contract with Hitman.


AND YES CROSSOVER BETWEEN OO7 AND HITMAN! LaChiffre from Casino Royale on Hitman! But they're advertizing as a crossover with first light
