Shadow of the Tomb Raider on the PC, PS4, and Xbox One marks the end of Lara Croft’s rebooted adventures, and it’s a disappointing conclusion to an otherwise excellent trilogy.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is undoubtedly the biggest, darkest and most enjoyable Tomb Raider game to date. The attention to detail in just about every area of the game is impressive, and the deadly challenge tombs really capture the essence of what Tomb Raider has always been about – solving puzzles, performing death-defying acts and getting hella’ loot in the process. It ties the trilogy up perfectly, and we’re already waiting to hear about what Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix have planned next.
So, what are you waiting for? It’s available right now on Amazon for only £47 in the UK, while US readers can head to Best Buy ($59.99).

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an enjoyable action-adventure for the most part, yet frequently falls victim to a haphazard narrative and structural pacing that stops the trilogy’s finale from truly standing out.

With a story that manages to satisfactorily tread the line between high-concept fun and grounded character exploration, Shadow of the Tomb Raider meaningfully wraps up the journey Lara began in 2013 and convincingly leaves her in a place resembling where she was when we were first introduced to her more than 20 years ago. I would have liked a little more incentive to explore the beautiful world Eidos Montreal has created, but I’d much prefer too much content than too little. There’s so much to enjoy elsewhere in a game that’s stuffed to the brim with ideas and devilishly challenging puzzles. I can’t wait to see where Lara goes next.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider isn’t terrible, but a story riddled with plot holes and an all-too-familiar loop make it perhaps the least vital entry in this reboot trilogy.
