Eidos has revealed to GamesIndustry.biz that it is currently considering whether or not to take legal action over Lava Kroft, a new game from Singaporean publisher Ozura Mobile.

"The game first came to our attention yesterday evening," a spokesperson said.

"We have contacted our legal department and brand team who are currently investigating the matter."

Ozura is billing the game as an "epic action adventure" which stars Lava Kroft, "a new age woman who has an exceptional thirst for discovering some of the most intriguing and mystical treasures in the world". Not unlike, it could be argued, Lara Croft, the star of Eidos's hit Tomb Raider series.
