After a long year, Rise of the Tomb Raider is officially coming to PlayStation 4, and its new box art bares a striking resemblance to the cover of another familiar series.
The art for the cover of Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration seems to have a lot in common with the cover for PS4’s Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection. Both covers feature a shaded version of the game’s main character in the center, and the font used on each is nearly identical.
Naughty Dog’s creative director Neil Druckmann even noticed the similarities, posting the two images side by side in a tweet joking about one copying the other.

Earlier this year, after a trailer for Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End was posted prior to the game’s release, it was discovered that Naughty Dog borrowed assets from Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag to use in a painting in the trailer. The trailer was quickly taken down and altered by the studio.
Rise of the Tomb Raider is coming to PS4 on October 11 as a 20 Year Celebration edition, featuring all of the game’s existing DLC, as well as a large amount of new content, including new DLC packs to explore Croft Manor, an endurance online co-op mode, and an exclusive PSVR mission.
