Rise of the Tomb Raider follows the critically-acclaimed Tomb Raider reboot, which showcased Lara Croft in a different light. She was shown to be a much more vulnerable protagonist, both to the hostile elements of the mysterious island, and to the wild enemies that hunted her. This reboot set the course for not only a new series of games, but also a movie reboot.
In Rise of the Tomb Raider, players are put into the shoes of a reborn Lara Croft, determined to follow in her father’s footsteps. It’s a title that takes what the original did so well, and aims to top it. The critical acclaim and recent release date make it an impressive addition to the Xbox Game Pass March 2018 line-up.
If you’ve not yet played Rise of the Tomb Raider, below you’ll find the official description, which should get you nice and hyped for the Xbox Game Pass March 2018 selection of games.
