Tomb Raider I-III Remastered is releasing from Aspyr and Crystal Dynamics on February 14th, and now Valve have given it the green tick of approval as it is now Steam Deck Verified. It was tested on the latest stable Proton 8 release, so as long as you use that across Steam Deck / Desktop Linux you should be good to go.
With this bundle you'll get Tomb Raider I + Unfinished Business, Tomb Raider II + Golden Mask and Tomb Raider III + The Lost Artifact. Aspyr say it has upgraded graphics, with the option to switch to the original polygon look at any time.
Direct Link
You can pre-order via:
GOG (you can use Lutris / Heroic)
Will you be picking it up to have a nostalgia blast? Worth pointing out the open source re-implementation of Tomb Raider 1 (1996) TR1X also exists. Remasters can be a pretty great thing to bring new audiences to older games, although they don't always hit, so hopefully Aspyr were careful with the Tomb Raider I-III Remastered collection.

QuoteWill you be picking it up to have a nostalgia blast?I probably will*, but it probably won't be at launch - I want to wait to hear others' experiences of running it on Linux first.
*If it's saddled with DRM I won't touch it with a ten-foot pole - I'll go the TR1X route in that case. But the Steam page doesn't currently suggest its presence, thankfully.

I've been waiting for a long time to be able to play this trilogy in good conditions and on recent hardware.
I hope the remasters will live up to my expectations.

Not to mention: I hope this is functional. After the many technological trainwrecks of 2023 especially I just assume that it won't be, and hope to be proven wrong.
I'm going to start getting more stuff on Gog as well, so maybe this.
This blog mentions Tomb Raider I-III Remastered will support both, with the modern controls taking inspiration from the Legend trilogy:

This one in particular hits me in the nostalgic feels, I'm 34 this year and grew up playing these games on PC, fond memories of being sat next to my dad watching the warm glow of the crt.. and searching for topless lara on the dial up 😂
I'm also from Derby so feel very proud of its heretidge, we have a road here called "lara croft way" in her honour 😊
