Patch 2, a new update for Tomb Raider I-III Remastered that developers Aspyr Media and Crystal Dynamics rolled out for their classic collection of action-adventure games last week, includes a quiet, unpublished change in which a pair of pin-up posters with Lara Croft have been removed from the "Sleeping with the Fishes" level in Tomb Raider III, leaving only a bare wall, according to comparison screenshots that have been shared online.

Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered pin-up posters controversy explained

Tomb Raider Remastered 1-3 stirred some controversy surrounding some sexualized pics of Lara we can see in the game. What's that all about?

"Aspyr has since clarified that the removal was an accident that resulted from tinkering with some of the HD textures, not an attempt at sneakily censoring the game’s easter eggs. This is likely true, as the low-res posters were still there to see for anyone playing the game in the OG view mode. Aspyr has stated the easter egg will be restored with the upcoming patch."
