Microsoft bought a period of Xbox exclusivity for Rise of the Tomb Raider, expecting a headline-grabbing fight with Uncharted 4 - which was promptly delayed into 2016. Lara is thus furnished with a MacGuffin to chase, an army of sinister goons to murder, an extremely unconvincing lost tribe to ally with, and a motivation to privately brood over. (Traditions are all well and good, but this genre could probably use a narrative shake-up.) The trail was laid by her father, whose claims about the artifact, a deathless prophet, and a centuries-old evil secret society called Trinity earned him public ridicule and might have caused his death. The set-up is straight from any previous Tomb Raider or, for that matter, any Uncharted: Lara's on the trail of an ancient artifact of mystical power, said to bestow eternal life and reside in a legendary lost city.
The Tomb Raider's rise might have to wait until after therapy. It's a game with a bad case of second-act syndrome. Developer Crystal Dynamics serves a preposterous yarn about a lost civilisation in the Siberian wilderness with a sombre straight face, saddling our heroine with obsessive daddy issues to work through. Even as Rise of the Tomb Raider's lightweight but sturdy framework for character development propels Lara to a capability her former self would have envied - survivalist, commando, craftswoman, fluent in ancient Mongolian and able to lethally overpower warriors twice her size - its storyline arrests her development. Availability: Also available on Xbox 360.And now that title promises the pay-off: the rise and rise of New Lara as the finished article, the Tomb Raider, the swan-diving, rock-climbing, gun-toting woman of our dreams. But, as a narrative device on its own terms, it worked. It was a jarring gearshift for a character whose previous incarnation was a remote, ice-cool badass, and her personal struggle clashed with the violence of the gameplay. Her last game, 2013's Tomb Raider, reset the clock and cast Lara as a vulnerable ingenue learning the strength and resourcefulness - and ruthlessness - that she would need to become a hero. Rise of the Tomb Raider: it's got that hint of pulp-magazine shlock, of the lurid, post-colonial adventures of the class of fictional explorers and action-archeologists to whom Lara Croft owes so much.
It is, if nothing else, a hell of a title.

Sofia, who has learned how to fly a helicopter, brought Lara to the factory, and circles over it, while Nadia read Lara instructions on how to shut down the factory permanently. The factory produced a gas which transformed the Trinity soldiers into primitive bloodthirsty savages, like the prisoners Soviets experimented on before.
Under Konstantin's orders, a group of Trinity soldiers reactivated the factory. Nadia managed to find records of this place, and learned of an old experiment to create super-soldiers, the experiment failed however, and was shut down.
