Lara Croft will soon be owned by the Japanese publishes of Final Fantasy.

Square Enix is on the verge of completing its takeover of financially troubled publisher Eidos, one of the last bastions of British games publishing, which will see the Japanese company control western franchises like Tomb Raider, Hitman and Just Cause.

The deal is estimated to be worth around $200million.

Anyone interested in Lara Croft staring in the next Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest?
