I almost didn't because of that timed exclusivity BS they pulled on a game that has been on Playstation for 20 years. I finally caved thinking "well, at least I'm not paying full price." As much as I hate to admit it Rise of the Tomb Raider is really f@#king good. I wouldn't classify it as open world but it's close enough. Like the reboot ROTR gives you the ability to fast travel to any section of the game and do side missions or challenges, as well as Tombs you tried earlier but didn't have the right gear. The tombs are insanely good. I'm not much of a puzzle fan because I am really bad at them but ROTR does it just right. It doesn't hold your hand but there are subtle hints if the game senses you in one Tomb too long. The most underrated part of this game I think is the story. I really liked it and as much as I love the Uncharted series, I think ROTR's story is right up their with the best. Controls are super fluid, and is nowhere near as annoying as the reboot's control scheme was. Level design is done really well giving you the chance to find all secrets and tombs before moving on to the next section. If you were like me and decided a while ago that you would vote with your wallet and not buy this game kudos to you for following through. I couldn't, and ultimately I am glad I didn't because this game I think will be considered a classic in the future.… Expand

    La Lara Croft que nous retrouvons dans ce jeux est plus confiente que dans l'épisode précédent et l'on peut sentir toute la force de l'héroïne dans cette campagne. Le rendu graphique est tout simplement magnifique les QTE ne sont pas prédominant tout au long du jeu et il est super bien balancé.

    Pour ce qui est des points négatif, j'ai trouvé que l'histoire était très semblable au premier donc un peu trop répétitif. J'aurais aimé plus de nouvelles mécanique gameplay car dans celui ci je n'ai pas eu de wow lorsqu'on apprenait des mouvements ou bien que l'on trouvait de nouveaux outils. Par exemple une nouvelle arme de mêlée aurait été intéressant et aurait diversifié le gameplay. De plus je n'ai pas eu les mêmes sentiments de stresse et vulnérabilité que l'on pouvait ressentir dans l'histoire du premier jeu.

    En résumé, j'ai adoré le jeu mais je n'ai eu aucune surprise. L'on aurait pu me dire que le jeu était un dlc du précédent et j'aurais pu y croire. Mais je tiens à dire que cette série rivalise pleinement avec uncharted    … Expand

The game has enough cut-scenes to tell the story, and the transition between cut-scenes to game play is smooth and keeps the player immersed. There are also plenty of skills and equipment, including skins for various attires that are readily available and a few can be unlocked from game play. Controls are responsive but take a bit of time to get used to. AI in the game is pretty good and challenging, enemies coordinate to flank, throw grenades or rush to melee. Exploration and puzzles provide a nice change of pace from the intense fire fights, puzzles are challenging enough that you don't need to look at a guide.

    Downside, the micro-transactions for "virtual card collectibles" that thankfully do not impact the game play. Console game publishers and devs need to stop and leave the micro-transactions for the "pay-to-play" mobile games and MMOs.

    Overall, playing Rise of the Tomb Raider is a fun and immersive experience. Its like watching a movie and playing a game at the same time. The game is worth playing and at current sale prices (bought mine $15 brand new), its a must have game for the PS4.    … Expand

    Alex the Kidd, Gamers of the Round Table

    Lara Croft has returned to PlayStation with her 20 Year Celebration edition of Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix’s Rise of the Tomb Raider. The follow up to 2013’s Tomb Raider, fans have been eagerly awaiting the next installment of the rebooted franchise, and now after a year-long wait, PS4 owners can experience Lara’s next adventure; does Rise of the Tomb Raider live up to the twenty year legacy of this award winning franchise, or is it a failed expedition that could derail the progress its predecessor set?
    The Good
    Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration is packaged with concept art from the creators and fan art submitted in celebration of twenty years of Lara Croft. Along with this collection of art, the game comes with every add-on available during the first year of its release, and new content as well. This includes VR support for “Blood Ties”, new “Ultimate Survivor” difficulty mode, new outfit and gun inspired by Tomb Raider III, 5 classic Lara skins, Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch, Endurance Mode, Cold Darkness Awakened, 12 outfits, 7 weapons, and 35 Expedition cards. With all of the additional content offered, players can feel good about paying full price for a game that is technically a year old; in the end you actually save money compared to those who bought the Xbox 1 copy last year and then purchased all of the subsequent DLC afterwards.
    The story in this game is a proper continuation from where we last left off. Players see the aftermath of the previous adventure where a survivor was born, and the ripples it created in Lara’s life. The adventure progresses at a steady pace, and no plot-point is left unresolved.
    The emphasis on resource gathering is a welcome addition, forcing players to hunt, forage, and look for supplies to upgrade their weapons and gear. Players must also gather collectables to increase their knowledge of ancient languages in order to find valuable artifacts. This game keeps the player from having anything handed to them, forcing them to earn the valuables they seek.
    The Bad
    The inability to blind-fire from behind cover becomes a problem as the amount of combat Lara is subjected to increases; when enemies are both running to your position and firing from a distance, the battles can feel aggravating, especially for those playing on survivor or ultimate survivor mode. The brutality seems toned down compared to the last installment, and while many may enjoy the lack of graphic visuals, it was a major component of the rebooted franchise – this isn’t your old Tomb Raider game, and this isn’t Lara Croft as you’ve experienced her before.
    Lack of dual-wielding pistols; at the conclusion of Tomb Raider, Lara defeats the final boss by firing two pistols simultaneously as an homage to the classic weapons of choice that have populated the series since the first game. While this is about the beginnings of Lara Crofts journey, this installment didn’t even offer a nudge to the classic weapons. The end of the last game insinuated that we would see a development in Lara’s arsenal, but players are left with more of the same from the previous installment.
    Rating
    10 – Rise of the Tomb Raider is a welcome addition to an already amazing franchise, not only continuing the journey set out from the 2013 reboot, but standing on its own as an excellent Tomb Raider game. This Lara Croft is a very human character, and while she isn’t the dual-wielding bad ass she was in previous years, it’s clear to see that she is well on her way. The 20 Year Celebration Edition for PS4 is the complete experience and then some, providing everything a gamer could want and more in a full-priced game. This game is the reason for owning a PS4.    … Expand

    Other negatives for me are the way game "holds your hand" when trying to work out where to go , or what to find. with one press of a button it will "light up" the way for you, and things you need to gather "glow" so you dont miss them. These options can be turned off of course, but its too easy to use the option when you get stuck., and i miss that part of Tomb Raider, hence the lower score. But this is a great game.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider did a fantastic job expanding on the gameplay and graphics, and the story was very interesting and well thought out as well.

Overall, however, I'd say that while it's really really close, I do prefer the previous game just slightly. Obviously it lacks in some areas, but it felt more grounded and personal. Rise of the Tomb Raider certainly amps up the action and the set pieces are more interesting, and more complex, but it doesn't quite match the introduction of the character, which was more mysterious, gritty, and focused more on survival and surprise. I also feel like the original had a stronger musical score. Rise of the Tomb Raider uses some dynamically generated music, which is a cool idea, but I don't feel like the score is as powerful or emotional. The ending also didn't feel quite as "epic" as the original did either.

    That being said, these are all ultimately nitpicks as I gave both games the same rating. While it doesn't quite reach the original in some areas, it definitely surpasses it in others. The visuals are more stunning and fit the current gen much more than the original, although still not quite at their full potential, considering the game was designed with compatibility with the Xbox 360 in mind. However, the world is far more interesting to look at, with a wide variety of different locations and set pieces that continue to amaze. The gameplay is much deeper than the original with more weapons, upgrades, and a deeper crafting system in play. For people who care about gameplay more than anything else, they will like this game much better than the original. However for me, the story, setting, tone, and supporting characters just weren't as good as the last game, although the new character Jacob was very well done, and the mythology behind the game was much more deeply thought out. This game also has much larger "mini open world" spaces that have tons of side missions and collectibles, which add a lot of replayability.

    Ultimately, compared to the last game there are things that make it better, and other things that don't quite match up. Overall, I would say they both rank at approximately the same level of quality. That being said, there are two games this game will likely be compared to a lot, and those are Uncharted 2 and 4. People will compare it to Uncharted 2 for showing how a sequel compares to the original. In that sense, I think Uncharted 2 was a much more impressive improvement over the original. Uncharted 4 will also be compared to this game for a more current-gen comparison. However, in that comparison I also have to give it to Uncharted. Uncharted 4's visuals and gameplay were far more impressive than RotTR, and Uncharted 4's story and musical score was just absolutely perfect, but both were solid games.

    In the end, if you liked the 2013 Tomb Raider game, you will like this one just as much. Some may like it better, some may like the other better, but they're both great games that deserve all the success they can get. I can't wait to play this a few more times to find all it has to offer. I also plan on checking out the DLC soon, including the VR mission, which was a nice touch.

    i give a 9 because the story is not great. The lore is awesome however, but the plot is poor. Otherwise the game is a jewel of gameplay, graphisms, animation and level design. This is better than UC4 from my perspective, not mentioning the fact that this edition comes with a lot of extra content.

Whatever, this amazing game didn't let me down. It's worth my wait and my money. I've played all tomb raider games and I could compare it especially with its prequel, Tomb Raider 2013.
    First of all, graphics are amazing, one of the best I've ever seen on PS4, both characters and settings are absolutely realistic.
    Settings are breathless, not too varied being always in the same area but amazing and well-finished.
    Unlike its prequel, Lara has more abilities and skills to improve, in this new one she can also swim under water, climb on trees, hide herself in bushes to avoid enemies and use a grappling hook! All of this, added to more tools to collect to upgrade guns, moreover she can also change her outfit and each one has a different bonus. In the previous one, you had just 4 weapons and both hunting and gathering were almost useless, they just gave you some xp. While in this one, like in Far Cry, you have a wide range of weapons and you have to kill a bear to obtain its fur and create a holster, or you need to collect mushrooms and wood to make poisoned arrows, just for instance.
    Map is twice (or even three times) as big as the prequel and the gameplay is very long, to finish the story you need to take 15 hours, but if you want to explore the tombs, follow secondary missions etc. you can take even more than 30 hours (including also included DLCs and the manor).
    Another aspect that I've enjoyed are the tombs. I complained about TR 2013 because of the tombs, in my opinion they weren't enough (just 5) and too easy to raid. While in this new one they are a dozen, more difficult, longer to explore and also more gorgeous.
    Then, the feature which I found less interesting: the story. In TR 2013 it was about a myth like in this one, but I found it more captivating and detailed in the previous game.
    In conclusion, Rise of the tomb raider is an epic game with stunning settings, a lot of things to do (you never get bored), quite difficult fights in which stealth could be a good strategy, but with a not very captivating plot. By the way, there will be a sequel, and if they put together all the improvements of Rise of the TR with the captivating story of TR 2013, an epic masterpiece will be born.    … Expand

It was interesting to read documents and ancient scripts, listen to allies and enemies dialogs, learn more about some artifacts.

    All in all, this game surpasses the previous part of the franchise. It provides much bigger and more beautiful gaming world, more complicated and challenging hidden tombs, more impressive and real combat, better animation, some unobtrusive RPG elements (which make the game more appealing). RotTR is a right mixture of action and exploration. It reminded me of the previous TR games (AotD and Legend). Great game, which will fill several of your evenings with a spectacular, breathtaking adventure and won't make you bored. It continues the idea implemented in the first part and converts it into a decent sequel. With the latest 1.06 patch the game provides a very smooth experience. Kudos to Nixxes! I only hope the next Crystal Dynamics game won't be delayed by 11 month for PS platform.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm gonna give this game a 9. Because of some bugs, mostly clipping issues and the relatively dumb AI. Other than that, this game is absolutely amazing. It was sort of an impulse buy for me because i had an RPG burn-out and i hadn't played a Tomb Raider game in a long time. Also didn't play the one from 2013. Seeing the positive reviews, i expected it to be good and that i would like it. But it's even better than i thought. It looks gorgeous, the combat is fun, the tombs and levels are incredibly well designed. The story is not super and a bit cliché. But still it's good enough and told in a way you will feel connected. The upgrades and skills make it even more addictive. And the extra dlc and content certainly makes it worth its price.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider is a phenomenal game. I enjoyed the first one, 2013's Tomb Raider, immensely, and Rise of the Tomb Raider takes that structure and fleshes it out with incredible detail.

It doesn't quite capture the brutal, raw feeling that I loved so much about the first one, but I also appreciate that this one isn't just a rehash.

    I absolutely enjoyed the Tomb Raider reboot from a few years ago. Amazing graphics, nice levels, great gameplay. This improves on that first game in every way. More varied design, even better graphics to push your machine, and better story. This game is just flat out fun and just a nice romp all the way to the end.

    The game did not age a bit while it awaited its PS4 release. It’s still fantastic and looks stunning. [13/2016, p.71]

    One of the best modern action adventures has finally arrived to PS4. Except a few small issues this version is a success, moreover, you will get all DLC along with the game; you can play in co-op and you will experience and extraordinary trip to Lara's home –  even with the support of VR. Set high difficulty, turn off auxiliary indicators and enjoy the Tomb Raider with everything that goes with it.

    All combined, you’re looking at the biggest and one of the most enjoyable Tomb Raiders yet. Here’s to 20 more years. [Christmas 2016, p62]
