Limited Run Games restocks Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on Switch 2

A second physical run is coming

Limited Run Games, a distributor known for producing fixed quantities of physical releases, has announced a fresh batch of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition for the Switch 2. According to Nintendo Life, the announcement arrived on 14 November 2026 and gives collectors who missed the first run another chance to buy a boxed copy.

The company usually sticks to one production run per title, so a repeat run is unusual. Nintendo Life notes the distributor is making an exception for Lara Croft, signalling how strong fan interest in this release has been.

Why the distributor changed its mind

The decision follows a poll run by Limited Run Games, in which 90 percent of respondents voted for the company to produce more copies of the game. That result appears to have persuaded the distributor to break from its usual one-run approach.

The restock also fits a wider moment for the franchise. Nintendo Life points out that the release lines up with the series marking three decades since its debut, giving fans extra reason to pick up a physical edition now.

Where the trilogy stands on Switch 2

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition arrived on the Switch 2 after the recent launch of the Survivor trilogy on the console, which covers the three reboot-era adventures starring Lara Croft. Nintendo Life reports that the other two entries in that trilogy are also listed on Limited Run's website.

A digital version appearing this way, with no advance notice, is often called a shadow drop.

What it means for collectors

Physical copies of Limited Run titles often sell out quickly, and first printings can become hard to find afterwards. A second batch reduces that pressure for anyone who wants the boxed edition without paying resale prices.

Readers who missed the first run can watch Limited Run's website for the new batch, and the other Survivor trilogy releases remain available there too. Anyone preferring a digital copy of the third game can find it on the Switch 2 eShop, as Nintendo Life confirmed.
