    Very well executed action game. The story is a bit cheesy but does enough to keep you hooked. The gameplay is top notch, specially the puzzles and fights. The game could strive for a 9/10 if the skills and equipment progression were more interesting. The scavenging and hunting end up becoming void, and the exploration is not that much of a thing.

    Pretty good reboot of the tomb raider saga, the history is pretty good and the gameplay is amazingly well done.

    A strong update of the Tomb Raider franchise that - thanks to its po-faced heroine and glaring absence of one-liners and buddy-cop bantz - is nowhere near as much fun to play as the Uncharted games. Good, but still a pretender to Nathan Drake's swashbuckling crown.

    The Tomb Raider series needed a refresh, and the creator did it very well. Interesting gameplay, nice, well presented story, and no major bugs. Overall, I highly recommend this game.

    In a delightful word full of surprising scenes. When I played this game again after 8 years. As if it was my turn! . Lara's empowerment process was great.

    Tomb Raider é um clássico, o reboot ficou a altura que o jogo merece mostrando o inicio de como Lara se torna um icone de força

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    This is by far the best Tomb Raider game to come out since it first began. There is so much depth and the gameplay is stellar. Graphics are top notch and its also very challenging. It starts out slow, but you'll soon find yourself in an all out war. If your looking for a great game at a discount price for the PS4, this is for you!!!

    Nowa lara w lepszej odsłonie niż poprzednie. Porządna fabuła i fajne lecz proste zagadki. Jedyny minus to słaby online wsadzony na siłe.

    Excelente jogo, todos os objetivos opcionais acabam por ser inseridos na narrativa principal, fazendo com que o jogo não se torne repetitivo nem maçante, me diverti muito!

    Recuerdo que cuando salió el juego tuvo muchas críticas, pero en mi opinión está genial. Un juego muy intuitivo de aprender, algo que muchos quieren desmerecer (los juegos por ser más difíciles y enrevesados no son mejores, en mi opinión). Dicho esto, gameplay entretenido, con la sensación de no haber relleno sino que parece que estás casi siempre ante un combate final. Muy recomendado.

    Storywise it's the best of the new trilogy. I'm really happy with the reboot of this franchise starting with this one. As for the definitive edition itself, I honestly didn't see many differences.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of coursed influenced by my personal opinions.

    (9) Superb. Just shy of gaming nirvana, this score is a high recommendation because the game reviewed is head-and-shoulders above its competition.

    Received free upgrade to PS4 version. Reboot of the Tomb Raider series is an exceptional game based on storytelling, gameplay, and puzzles. There is a lot to do and discover in this game and the story will keep you wanting to continue. Whenever you die in this game be prepared to see Lara in a painful and gruesome animation. This series will give Uncharted a run for their money and give them someone to compete with and try to be called the best in the genre.    … Expand

Sin duda supieron muy bien los de Square Enix cómo desarrollar este videojuego. La historia no es la mejor del mundo, pero tampoco está mal, la encajaríamos dentro de una historia que puede enganchar, que no disgusta, y que no importa seguir por lo tanto no es malo aunque tampoco es su punto más brillante. La jugabilidad es normal, no destaca, pero tampoco es mala. Le otorgo una nota de ocho por ser la mejor versión de los tres últimos Tom Riders, sin duda esta nota va bajando a medida que vamos cambiando de videojuego    … Expand

    The first Tomb Raider I've played since the Playstation 1. The game offered me approximately 11 hours of non-stop action and a very interesting story. I liked the Japanese setting, which was well done.

    I only had one "crash" in the entire playthrough when I had to restart the game, otherwise the game runs great on the PS5 console.

    In conclusion, I have to say that this game is a great sparring partner to Uncharted, unfortunately it doesn't hold a candle to the Uncharted series. Although I kind of wish in the back of my mind that we would see a joint adventure of Lara Croft and Nathan Drake one day.

    I rate it 9/10.    … Expand

    I really love the reboot of Tomb Raider. Square Enix have made a fantastic job. For me the Tomb Raider series since 2013 are the best 3D action adventures today. Fantastic story, outstanding gameplay and one of the best female hero you can play in a game.

    Ridiculously fun game. The movement is amazing, parkour is a blast and combat is super fun. The story is basic but not in a bad way this time. You know what's going to happen and that's ok. Lara Croft is a badass.

    I was absolutely wowed by this game the first time I played it through because I was paying so much attention to the cut scenes and redesigned Lara Croft was a joy to behold...But having had a year to sit and consider the game's broader meaning, the second time around the game's flaws are all the more apparent.
