Rise of the Tomb Raider reviews

7/10

+ Lara's character is a star
+ Edge of my seat cinematic action set pieces
+ Puzzle tombs were a good challenge and a blast
+ Varied landscapes compared to previous titles
+ Gorgeous visuals throughout

- Combat feels tacked on
- Side quests never felt compelling
- Story treads on cliche Indiana Jones territory
«Sit back and relax»
«Beaten more than once»
Though the plot is somewhat clumsy, the gameplay is awesome and the graphics are wonderful especially on PS4 Pro in native 4k mode.
