About this game
Lara's search for Kitezh takes you through Siberia and into tombs protected by environmental puzzles and traps. Exploring these places sits alongside encounters with Trinity: you can engage its soldiers directly or use stealth to eliminate them. Gathering resources also matters, because those supplies become survival equipment, while skill upgrades develop Lara's abilities. The adventure therefore combines solving a route through ancient spaces with preparing for armed opposition. Your recurring decisions concern how to approach enemies and what to make from the resources you gather. This 20 Year Celebration edition also includes the Season Pass content, with additions such as Blood Ties, Baba Yaga and Endurance modes alongside the main expedition.
Collected in series
Tomb Raider follows Lara Croft into ruins where finding a route can be as important as surviving a fight. Climbing, ancient mechanisms and archaeological mysteries anchor adventures that range from deliberate exploration to cinematic action.

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
For players who want tomb puzzles and resource preparation woven into an armed expedition.
Puzzles, crafting and the choice of combat or stealth should suit players who enjoy changing their approach within an adventure. The included expansions provide additional directions to explore, but the core premise still asks you to engage with armed conflict as well as archaeology.
Strengths
- Combat and stealth offer different ways to approach encounters with Trinity.
- Crafting gives resource gathering a practical connection to the expedition.
Weaknesses
- Players primarily seeking quiet tomb puzzles may find the combat side less appealing.
Who it is for: Adventure players who enjoy environmental puzzles but also want combat decisions and character development.
Play notes: Online play requires an internet connection and a paid Nintendo Switch Online membership.
