Thanks to a Reddit user's quick thinking and apparently great stolen shots taking capabilities, the title of the third Tomb Raider may have been accidentally revealed. Redditor Tripleh280 has uploaded a photo of what looks like the next Lara Croft game with a working title "Shadow of the Tomb Raider."

A rumored game developer may have accidentally revealed the title of the next game as he rode a Montreal subway with his laptop open. Tripleh208 took a stolen shot of the open laptop and immediately uploaded the file online.

Kotaku reported the Redditor's accomplishment and said that if readers just zoomed the image a bit, they would be able to decipher the title "Shadow of the Tomb Raider." This title was reported to be the next game in the franchise and a source also said that it was true. The report also said that the name also fits with the titles of the last two games: "Tomb Raider" and "Rise of the Tomb Raider."

On the other hand, IGN reported that they asked a representative for Square Enix if this rumor is true. IGN said that Square Enix's representative said that they do not release comments on rumors and speculations.

Meanwhile, some online Tomb Raider followers were dead set that this was indeed the next title of the game. They based their speculations on the location where the image was taken by Tripleh208. The Reddit user said that he was simply riding the subway downtown for work when he spotted the guy and did not hesitate to take a photo.

Tomb Raider may be from Crystal Dynamics, a San Francisco animation studio however, Eidos Montreal is in the city. This is a large animation company behind amazing titles like "Thief" and "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided" which is also reported to be developing the next Lara Croft game.
