Announced in the Microsoft briefing, here’s our first look at the sequel to the rebooted Tomb Raider franchise by Crystal Dynamics. Lara had a rough go of things in the first game and it looks like this second game will temper her steel. And it looks fantastic. And I must play it immediately. These are mandatory. Rise of the Tomb Raider will be released Holiday 2015. So by “immediately”…..I mean “in 18 months”.
Rise of the Tomb Raider continues the story of Lara Croft as she seeks to learn more about the deeper, secret world she as discovered around her. Obsessed by what she has seen, Lara is now threatened by a shadow organization intent on killing her for what she knows. She is pushed to her physical and mental limits as she seeks the truth buried deep within the tombs of an ancient world. To unravel the mystery of a Lost City, Lara must use her survival skills and wits, learn to trust new friends, and ultimately accept her destiny as the Tomb Raider.
