Tomb Raider Legend was a reboot of sorts for the series, giving Lara a different origin story and modernized controls. Anniversary used those same controls and engine to remake the original title, giving the 1996 game new life.
Although these titles are now one reboot cycle behind the current Tomb Raider franchise, backwards compatibility is a great chance to revisit the semi-modern, semi-classic games.
