The animated Tomb Raider: The Legend Of Lara Croft series comes to Netflix in October, and the first trailer teases plenty of action. Netflix released the trailer on Monday for the series, which stars Hayley Atwell as the voice of the Tomb Raider character. You can check it out below.

The series is set after the events of the rebooted games and also features the voices of Allen Maldonado and Earl Baylon. Tasha Huo is showrunning the series, which Legendary and Crystal Dynamics are producing.

Arriving on October 10th, the series is described as follows:

The animated series Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft picks up after the events of the highly successful Tomb Raider video game Survivor trilogy (Tomb Raider; Rise of the Tomb Raider; Shadow of the Tomb Raider), and will chart the globetrotting heroine’s next chapter as the iconic adventurer. More than 25 years after her first appearance, Lara Croft (voiced by Hayley Atwell) continues to explore ancient mysteries and uncover lost truths across breathtaking and dangerous destinations.

Following the events of the Survivor series, Lara Croft has abandoned her friends to embark on increasingly more perilous solo adventures. But she must return home when a dangerous and powerful Chinese artifact is stolen from Croft Manor by a thief with an uncanny personal connection. Her daring pursuit will take her on an adventure around the world and to the depths of forgotten tombs, where she will be forced to confront her true self, and decide just what kind of hero she wants to become.
