'''Eidos Video Technologies''' was founded in 1990 as a video compression company, developing the RPL video format, which was later massively used in the company's games. In 1995, Eidos took over [[Domark Group (UK)|Domark]], Big Red Games, and [[Simis Limited (UK)|Simis Group]], merging them into '''Eidos Interactive'''. The Domark name was still used for one year after the demise. In 1996, Eidos acquired [[U.S. Gold (UK)|U.S. Gold]] along with [[Core Design (UK)|Core Design]]. In 2005, the [[SCI Entertainment Group (UK)|SCi Group]] bought Eidos and adopted its name, and in 2009, the Japanese company [[Square Enix]] purchased Eidos and turned it into Square Enix Europe. In May 2022, Embracer Group made a deal with Square Enix to acquire the assets of Square Enix Europe, which includes [[Eidos Montreal|Eidos-Montréal]], [[Crystal Dynamics]] and Square Enix Montreal. |

'''Nickname:''' "Letter-by-Letter Flashing" |

|
|
'''Logo:''' We see a bright flash, followed by an "E" zooming out of the screen on a water-like {{color|blue}} background, then "I", "D", "O" and "S" coming from the top-right of the screen, each with a {{color|blue}} light ray-like effect. Then, "INTERACTIVE" zooms under the word "EIDOS" while the light rays dim out, causing the light to appear behind the logo, making it glow as it zooms back slowly. Then "PRESENTS" zooms under the logo with light ray effects, dims out and glows as well. Then at the end, a bright light fills the entire screen, leaving it white, before fading to black. |

'''Variants:''' |
|
*There is a prototype variant of the logo where there is no bright flash at the beginning, and the {{color|blue}} water-like background is different. Plus, the logo is drastically larger, filling up almost the entire width of the screen. After the the logo forms, "PRESENTS" fades in under the logo. Then the whole logo, along with "PRESENTS", dissolves. A slowed-down and stretched version of this variant can be seen on ''Swagman''. |

|
*There is a different logo on various games. The animation at the first ten approximate seconds is mostly the same, but there is no "PRESENTS" under the logo. There is no bright flash at the end, instead, the logo dissolves into debris. Then it cuts into a black screen a second later. Sometimes, it freezes and fades out after the animation finishes. The bright flash at the first split second is also slightly different (and it looks better). |

*On Core Design games, the logo proceeds as normal (see above), but after the logo dissolves, it fades into the word "PRESENTS" placed on a space background, and the Core Design logo proceeds. This is seen on all the PlayStation and PC ''Tomb Raider'' games (except the first one), ''Fighting Force 1 & 2'', and other Core Design games for the PlayStation and PC. This variant was introduced on October 31, 1997 with the releases of ''Tomb Raider II'' and ''Fighting Force''. |

* A synthesised bass chord, followed by five whoosh sounds and finally a crumbling sound. Used mostly on the "PRESENTS"-less variant. |
|
⚫ |
* A strange droning sound. This has only been spotted on ''Swagman'', ''Deathtrap Dungeon'', and ''F1 World Grand Prix: Season 1999'' so far (the former using the prototype logo). |
