Feral Interactive’s mobile port arrives September 8, 2026, with the first level playable free and the rest sold as an in-app purchase.

Feral Interactive is bringing Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris to phones and tablets, and the store listings are already live for pre-registration. The four-player co-op spin-off, originally released in 2014, lands on mobile on Tuesday, September 8, 2026.

Quick answer: Open the Google Play Store or the App Store, find the Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris listing, and tap Pre-register (or Pre-Order). Nothing is charged now — the game launches as a free download with the first level playable, and the rest unlocks through an in-app purchase.


How to pre-register Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris

Open the Google Play Store on Android, or the App Store on iPhone and iPad. Make sure you are signed in to the account you plan to install the game with.
Search for “Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris” and open the listing published by Feral Interactive. Check the publisher name before tapping anything, since the series has several mobile releases with similar art.
Tap the pre-registration button on the listing. No payment is taken at this stage, and no card is charged when the game goes live either.
Confirm it worked. The button on the listing switches to a confirmation state once your pre-registration is recorded, and the store notifies you when the game becomes available to download on September 8.

Note: If the listing shows a “Not available in your country” message or refuses the tap, the usual cause is a mismatch between your store region and the account you are signed in with, rather than a device problem.


What you get for free and what costs money

The mobile version ships as a try-before-you-buy release from day one. Download it on launch day and you can play through the entire first level at no cost, which is enough to judge how the touch controls and performance hold up against the console original.

Continuing past that point requires a single in-app purchase that unlocks the rest of the game. There is no trial window to expire, so you can leave the free level installed and decide later.

Device requirements for iOS and Android

Storage is the constraint most people will hit first. Both platforms need roughly the same amount of free space, but Apple devices want extra headroom during installation.

PlatformRequirement
Android OSAndroid 13 or later
Android storageAt least 3.6GB free
iOS/iPadOSiOS 18 or later
Apple storage3.6GB minimum, 7.2GB recommended to avoid install errors

If an install fails partway through on an iPhone or iPad, clearing space up to that 7.2GB mark is the fix, since the installer needs room to unpack the download before it removes the temporary files.


Supported iPhone and iPad models

Apple hardware support starts around the iPhone XS generation. Older devices will not see the listing as compatible even if they can run iOS 18.

  • iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, plus every later iPhone
  • iPhone SE (3rd generation)
  • iPhone Air
  • iPad (10th generation and later)
  • iPad mini (6th generation and later)
  • iPad Air (4th generation and later)

What Temple of Osiris plays like on mobile

Temple of Osiris is a twin-stick shooter viewed from a fixed overhead angle, not a platformer. It alternates between fighting waves of undead enemies and working through environmental puzzles and trap-filled rooms, and it supports up to four players together. That makes it a clear departure from the mainline Tomb Raider games, which is part of why it tends to get overlooked.

Feral Interactive has reworked the game for handheld play with dedicated touch-screen controls, alongside support for keyboard and mouse and for external controllers. Anyone who has played Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light will recognise the structure — Temple of Osiris expands on that same formula, this time setting Lara loose in an ancient Egyptian tomb with a set of unwilling companions.

Pre-registering is optional — the game will be free to download for anyone on launch day regardless — but it removes the step of hunting down the listing on September 8, and the store handles the reminder for you.
