The ’ Tomb Raider ’ character topped a poll conducted by BAFTA When you think of iconic video game characters, there are certain names that repeatedly crop up. Mario has to be up there, along with the likes of Sonic , Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and perhaps even a modern character like someone from Minecraft or Pokemon. However, a new poll conducted by BAFTA has revealed that it is ’ Tomb Raider ’ character Lara Croft that is deemed the most iconic by video game players.
The first two starred Angelina Jolie as the title character, while the 2018 reboot saw Alicia Vikander take on the role. Lara Croft, who is a fictional British archaeologist who explores ancient tombs and ruins around the world, beat off competition from the aforementioned Mario and Sonic, as well as Link from the ’Legend of Zelda’ series and Agent 47 from ’Hitman’ - all of which made the Top 10.
