Lara Croft’s latest adventure lives in the shadow of Tomb Raider — the tacky marketing of the 1996 debut, the prestige of the modern trilogy. Eventually, Shadow of the Tomb Raider succumbs to the darkness, repeating many of the series’ usual mistakes, but along the way it shines a thrilling and refreshing light.","2024-12-06T17:55:42.542281-05:00","2024-12-29T20:20:33.816897-05:00",{"id":231,"logo":244,"name":245,"slug":246,"tags":173,"bluesky":247,"twitter":246,"youtube":246,"facebook":246,"mastodon":19,"muckrack":19,"claimed_at":19,"description":248,"website_url":249,"score_format":250,"average_score":19,"default_timezone":47,"last_review_date":19,"stats_updated_at":48,"headquarters_city":19,"news_editor_email":19,"platforms_covered":19,"claimed_by_user_id":19,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":19,"reviews_editor_email":19,"editor_in_chief_email":19,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002Fpolygon-logo.png","Polygon","polygon","polygon.com","Covering video games, entertainment, and the culture around them.

Lara has always played the roles of savior and protector and researcher and badass — almost entirely because those are parts she has been thrust into. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is a perfectly good game, but it feels as though it never figures out a way to address the most compelling aspect of this arc: Lara’s personal growth. What path does she want to carve? What does she want her legacy to be? Maybe she’d be happiest spending her life raiding tombs — all of the danger with none of the world-ending stakes.

It's huge and detailed and stupid and probably most of all, fun. Problematic fun, without question, in a way that the game loudly invites upon itself, and the gets completely arse about tit. And even without that aspect, the story is absolute balls from top to bottom. But I came for the running and jumping and grabbing and sliding, and I got that in spades.

Crystal Dynamics took on the task of rebooting the character by creating an origin story that would give us deeper insight into her personality and show her at her most vulnerable. It was an exciting change of pace, as we were watching her grow from inexperienced adventurer to full-fledged tomb raider. Shadow of the Tomb Raider provides the final piece of this transformation, showing us her defining moment of becoming the wall climbing relic hunter she was meant to be.

I had my share of fun with the adrenaline-pumping set pieces, but I also felt a bit disappointed by both the overall narrative and Lara herself.","2025-03-26T08:15:19.265197-04:00",{"id":465,"logo":478,"name":479,"slug":480,"tags":19,"bluesky":19,"twitter":481,"youtube":482,"facebook":483,"mastodon":19,"muckrack":19,"claimed_at":19,"description":484,"website_url":485,"score_format":45,"average_score":46,"default_timezone":47,"last_review_date":19,"stats_updated_at":48,"headquarters_city":486,"news_editor_email":19,"platforms_covered":19,"claimed_by_user_id":19,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":179,"reviews_editor_email":19,"editor_in_chief_email":19,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002Fgameinformer.jpg","Game Informer","gameinformer","GameInformer","@gameinformer","officialgameinformer","Over 30 years celebrating the best of games in print and online.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gameinformer.com\u002F","Minneapolis",{"id":488,"game_id":5,"outlet_id":489,"author":490,"original_score":497,"normalized_score":498,"review_url":499,"review_date":395,"summary":500,"created_at":501,"updated_at":501,"author_id":491,"last_edited_at":12,"outlet":502},105808,139,{"id":491,"bio":19,"name":492,"avg_score":493,"outlet_id":19,"created_at":494,"profile_id":19,"updated_at":495,"claim_token":19,"article_count":496,"claimed_by_user_id":19},5122,"Robin Baird",84.96428571428571,"2025-01-28T19:34:15.813526-05:00","2025-08-01T22:04:20.883903-04:00",29,"9.5",95,"https:\u002F\u002Fgamespace.com\u002Freviews\u002Fshadow-of-the-tomb-raider-ps4\u002F","Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the best game in this trilogy and was well worth the wait.

I would have liked a little more incentive to explore the beautiful world Eidos Montreal has created, but I’d much prefer too much content than too little. There’s so much to enjoy elsewhere in a game that’s stuffed to the brim with ideas and devilishly challenging puzzles.
