Rise of the Tomb Raider

While the Tomb Raider we got in 2013 wasn't by any means a bad game, I have no hesitation in saying that this is the game that finally does Lara Croft's glorious franchise justice.

Rise of the Tomb Raider raises the bar set by Lara’s last outing with a rollicking adventure story, strong villains, gorgeous vistas, and smart puzzles – go off the main path to find the best stuff in dastardly optional tombs. Though the mandatory combat doesn’t distinguish itself with challenging enemies unless you crank up the difficulty, Lara’s newfound versatility on the battlefield makes figh...

Adventure found me.

Rise of the Tomb Raider is neither a revelation nor a revolution. However, it's still a gorgeous, solid and extremely fun action adventure experience. Even with its familiar platforming and combat, Rise of the Tomb Raider shouldn't be missed.

Bigger, better and bolder; the only possibly negative thing I can say about Rise of the Tomb Raider is that it doesn’t exactly break any new ground.

Rise of The Tomb Raider is a beautiful and well-made game. With a gripping story, great acting and brilliant world design, there's plenty to do and you will want more.

A really fun game that you will be able to sink plenty of time into but once you complete the campaign there isn't much more to do.

“Rise of the Tomb Raider is the best blockbuster game of 2015.”

Rise of the Tomb Raider is better than its predecessor, but only because of its additions; it doesn’t fix any of the things that were wrong with Tomb Raider (2013). The story is smoothed down, much of it hidden away in dull audio logs. It’s not about “survival” as billed, given the ease of mowing down dozens of folks and plenty of resources. But finding tombs wherein to clamber about ancient Rube ...
