Initially searching for a relic capable of “reshaping” the world in Mexico, Lara soon discovers removing it from its resting place has triggered a Maya apocalypse. Picking up after the events of the previous game, Shadow of the Tomb Raider finds Lara and adventuring partner Jonah Maiava in pursuit of Trinity, the organization Lara has fought against since the first game. That means you’re in for one hell of a ride. Shadow of the Tomb Raider isn’t interested in putting the training wheels back on Lara Croft. She has completed her transformation into the ultimate adventurer, warrior, and archaeologist, and even the collective efforts of a secret society hell-bent on altering the entire planet can’t stop her. The fear she felt during the events of 2013’s Tomb Raider and its sequel, Rise of the Tomb Raider, has been replaced with deadly confidence, and her name is now spoken like the stuff of legend.

Lara Croft emerges from a murky pond and mercilessly slaughters a mercenary with her knife.
