WHERE TO PLAY

DIGITAL

Adventurer Lara Croft has been hired to recover the pieces of an ancient artefact known as the Scion. With her fearless acrobatic style, she runs, jumps, swims and climbs her way toward the truth of it's origins and powers - leaving only a trail of empty tombs and gun-cartridges in her wake.

On this trail are the most breath-taking 3D worlds yet seen - where exploration, puzzle and platform elements blend in a seamless real-time environment.

Over 5,000 frames of animation on the main character, Lara, alone.

16 massive levels encompassing four continents.

Unique multi-target acquisition system.

State-of-the-art intelligent third person perspective cinematic camera system.

Multi-genre immersive gameplay.

The first real 3D interactive exploratory adventure.
