The combat also remains largely the same, with Lara being able to carry 4 weapons in her inventory at any given time (which can be swapped out and upgraded at campfires). Campfires serve as spots where you can fast travel between places in the game, craft items and upgrade your equipment and skills. Whether you are hunting animals for pelts, picking mushrooms or gathering wood, your environment is your best friend in this game. Resources can be gathered around you to upgrade your weapons and craft inventory items such as ammunition and healing kits. A lot of focus is put on survival and using your environment to aid you. Moving around the environment is often done through climbing, scaling walls and all that good stuff. The gameplay in Rise largely follows the same mechanics from Tomb Raider. A journey which takes her through the Siberian wilderness, cold war installations and a valley where she meets the indigenous people, who she has to work with in order to find a way to stop Trinity from getting their hands on the Divine Source. Hunted by an ancient group called Trinity, she travels to Siberia in search of an ancient city known as Kitezh to find the Divine Source before they do. Her father was on the trail for it, but died before he could finish his work, which is where Lara decides to pick up. The story of Rise is more of a personal story with Lara following in her father’s footsteps, looking for an ancient artifact in Siberia, that allegedly contains the “Divine Source”, the fountain of youth itself. Despite being 2 years since its release already, during which I have been playing the game on and off, I want to give my own personal opinion on this game given I already reviewed the original at my blog in 2013 and absolutely loved it. And 3 years later, in 2016, we received “Rise Of The Tomb Raider”, the next chapter of the Tomb Raider saga.

It seems a no-brainer that after the success of the reboot, which received almost universal acclaim, the same team would work on a sequel.
