The Tomb Raider reboot trilogy concludes on Nintendo Switch 2 today with Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition. Aspyr will be bringing it out within the next few hours.
Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition and Rise of the Tomb Raider previously came to the platform. In this one, “Lara must venture through deadly and exotic locations, surviving the unforgiving jungle and braving terrifying tombs to reach the legendary lost Inca city of Paititi.” The release should include the base game as well as various DLC.
Below is an official overview:
In Shadow of the Tomb Raider Definitive Edition experience the final chapter of Lara’s origin as she is forged into the Tomb Raider she is destined to be. Combining the base game, all seven DLC challenge tombs, as well as all downloadable weapons, outfits, and skills, Shadow of the Tomb Raider Definitive Edition is the ultimate way to experience Lara’s defining moment.
Survive and Thrive In the Deadliest Place on Earth: Master an unforgiving jungle setting in order to survive. Explore underwater environments filled with crevasses and deep tunnel systems.
Become One With the Jungle: Outgunned and outnumbered, Lara must use the jungle to her advantage. Strike suddenly and disappear like a jaguar, use mud as camouflage, and instill fear in enemies to sow chaos.
Discover Dark and Brutal Tombs: Tombs are more terrifying than ever before, requiring advanced traversal techniques to reach them, and once inside they are filled with deadly puzzles.
Uncover Living History: Discover a hidden city and explore the biggest hub space ever found in a Tomb Raider game.
We’ve included a trailer for a closer look below.
