Multiple open-world maps to play in
Loads of missions to complete
A great
Traditional Lara Croft story
The return of tombs
Glorious environments to explore
A better thematic fit with the franchise
Solid stealth
Combat
And platforming mechanics
Still a fantastic adventure
One year on
Smoother action and rock-solid frame rates
Surprisingly good Endurance mode
Enjoyable new Croft Manor modes
So many game types
All delivered with panache
Breathtaking scenery
Tombs are exactly as they should be (minus blow darts)
Just keeps delivering immensely highquality moments
Brimming with intense action
Balance of open-world discovery
And story
Lara Croft remains one of gaming's best protagonists
Visually stunning
Solid mechanics
From climbing mountains to stealthily dispatching soldiers
Beautiful graphics
Deep and exciting adventure
Wellwritten and performed
The editors didn't like
Longer than the last outing but still a bit short considering there's really only the single-player campaign
Not enough puzzle solving for some
Combat occasionally frustrating
Not all the DLC feels that essential
Blood Ties can feel like it's leading you by the nose
Far too many collectibles everywhere
It's very
Very similar to the previous game
Lara's ridiculous survival skills break immersion
Retreads familiar ground from previous title
“Survival vision” strips much of the challenge out of puzzles
A sequel that surpasses the original in every way aside from stable framerate.
