Crystal Dynamics' rendition of Croft in "Legend" garnered wide, though not universal, praise; many publications described the portrayal as a successful reboot. "Game Informer" named Lara Croft the number six top video game hero of 2006, citing the character's successful reprise in popularity. The magazine cited the character's alterations in "Legend" as the reason for her resurgent success. Chris Slate of "PlayStation Magazine" lauded the character changes in "Legend", commenting that "Lara is finally back". He praised Eidos's decision to switch developers and Crystal Dynamics' contributions, especially the character's new gameplay manoeuvres and updated appearance. Others, such as Schedeen and "GamePro"s Patrick Shaw, felt that the makeover did not improve the character. Fans also disapproved of the changes, especially the switch from the braid.
