She’s never killed a man before and she certainly comes out the other side much worse for wear. She’s young, inexperienced, scarred, shipwrecked and fighting for her life. In Tomb Raider, Lara Croft is on her first-ever expedition. I say Rise of the Tomb Raider surpasses the reboot in almost every way because there’s a couple of slightly disappointing elements. Not only that, but it’s a very strong contender for my personal Game of the Year. Surpassing Crystal Dynamics’ franchise reboot in 2013 in almost every way, Rise is a stunning example of adventure gaming in 2015.
Lara Croft is the ultimate reason to own an Xbox One. Rise of the Tomb Raider is a goddamn masterpiece.įorget Master Chief.
