A new series of postage stamps featuring images from games such as Tomb Raider and Elite have been released in the UK in order to celebrate British-developed video games.
The series is comprised of 12 stamps, with each showing off a key UK-designed game from the 1980s and 90s. Elite, Dizzy, Populous, Lemmings, Micro Machines, Sensible Soccer, Wipeout, and Worms all feature in the collection.
4 of the 12 stamps are dedicated to Tomb Raider’s Lara Croft, who was created by English studio Core Design in the 1990s. These 4 stamps feature Lara’s visual evolution over 1996’s Tomb Raider, 1998’s Adventures of Lara Croft, 2000’s Tomb Raider Chronicles, and 2013’s Tomb Raider reboot.
