After more than 15 years of pulpy, Indiana Jones -inspired adventuring and treasure plundering, last year's reboot - simply titled Tomb Raider - reimagined the series and its protagonist as more dramatic and emotional, though still badass.

Four years since The Guardian of Light, Crystal Dynamics released a new overwhelming chapter for Tomb Raider spin-off series.
