Lara Croft is returning to her family’s ancestral home this fall in new DLC for Rise of the Tomb Raider. But it’s definitely not going to be a happy homecoming.
A new trailer for Xbox One’s Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration offers gameplay footage from the upcoming DLC expansions: “Blood Ties” and “Lara’s Nightmare,” both of which take place in Croft Manor. “Blood Ties” will follow Lara as she desperately explores Croft Manor in order to discover her father’s hidden secrets and to fend off the legal moves of her uncle, who wants to claim her home for himself. As you can see in the footage, Croft Manor has definitely seen better days.
“Lara’s Nightmare” lives up to its title, as the tomb-raiding heroine finds herself under attack by a zombie horde and other undead things inside Croft Manor. Even in the reboot timeline, zombies are not the craziest thing that Lara Croft has encountered. But that doesn’t mean that it’s gonna be easy for her.
Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration will come with the original Rise of the Tomb Raider game, the “Blood Ties” and “Lara’s Nightmare” DLC, and all of the previously released DLC for this title. It also has a feature that allows players to assume control of Lara’s classic character models as well as the new “extreme survivor” difficulty setting that challenges players to make it through the game without checkpoints. The game will be released on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on October 11. The PS4 version will also have VR support in Croft Manor.
