Tomb Raider Definitive Edition

In the role of Lara Croft, players will explore caves, villages, ruins, and mountain paths in search of ancient artifacts. Players will encounter gun and melee fights, cannibalism, graphic and violent death cutscenes that are repeated with every quest step failure, and hunting/killing of wild animals. Narrative themes may be perceived as colonialist in nature.
