For the Characters who appeared in Tomb Raider: Anniversary and Tomb Raider: Underworld, see Doppelgänger (Legend Timeline).

The Doppelgänger was a replica of Lara Croft that appeared within a puzzle room in Atlantis.

Encounter[]

The doppelgänger is encountered in 'Atlantis'. Its appearance was of a skinless human with no hair. The creature seemed to have very limited intelligence, as it was only able to mimic/mirror Lara's every movement. While it did not attack directly, shooting it caused damage to Lara herself. Lara was eventually able to trick it into jumping into a pit of molten lava, destroying it. It is hypothesized that this doppelgänger was just an Atlantean creature copying Lara's every move because it did not have a motive.

Skills And Abilities[]

The Doppelgänger possesses almost the same skills as Lara. She can throw fire balls faster than Lara can shoot her pistols and she can dodge Lara's bullets.

Trivia[]

  • The skinless appearance caused fans to dub it 'Bacon Lara'.
  • Once in the lava trap, the doppelgänger will still mimic Lara's shooting and drawing animation. Although it appears to be a bug, it has lead to speculation among fans if the dopplegänger truly died.
