This includes seven monthly DLC packs, each bringing a new Challenge Tomb, weapon, outfit, skill, and side mission to the game. The season pass is priced at $30, but you can also purchase each separate DLC for $5 except for the final tomb which requires you to have finished the game's main story, and is exclusively made available to season pass holders only. Five of the seven DLC Challenge Tombs will be playable in co-op where both players see themselves as Lara Croft and the second player as a side character. In this case, the second character was Kuwaq Yaku villager Abby. Each DLC ties its challenge tombs in with a side mission and character, lending the puzzle-solving experience a narrative hook. Each tomb can also be revisited in Time Attack and Score Attack modes. The former records your best times completing the tomb, while the latter sees you collecting wisps of light and shooting glowing lanterns to increase your score. These modes will also be made available for the game's existing tombs. The Forge (Nov 13) is a lava-filled Challenge Tomb that tasks you with climbing a rotating tower. In our time playing through the tomb, we came across plenty of pitfalls and explosive gas vents that sent us to an early grave on a few occasions. Using the same gas vents to propel ourselves around on swinging pendulums was a clever twist on the obstacle. Reaching the end granted us a Grenadier skill, used for crafting grenades. The Pillar (Dec 18) Discover the truth behind the legend of the Maya apocalypse! To reclaim an ancient treasure, Lara Croft must defy the treacherous storms of an all-new challenge tomb, all while fighting Trinity. The Pillar offers new customization options, with the Sinchi Chiqa Battle Dress, the Oathtaker’s bow, and the Thousands Eyes skill, which allows Lara to use Survival Instincts when moving through tree canopies or concealment walls. The Nightmare (Jan 22/2019) Learn the secret Uchu has told no one else! In order to obtain a powerful and mysterious weapon, Lara Croft must face the music in a brand-new challenge tomb, battle foes who look like but are not like any she's ever faced, and confront the deadliest enemy of all: herself. The Nightmare offers new customization options, with the Scales of Q outfit, the Grip of Fear axe, and the White Breath skill, which grants Lara's Fear Arrows the power of an area effect. The Price of Survival (Feb 12) Solve the mystery of Lara's greatest foe! While trying to crack the private codes of Trinity's leader, Lara must conquer a poisonous new challenge tomb and defeat the elite Paititian soldiers that stand in her way. “The Price of Survival” is an all-new single-player challenge tomb. This offers new customization options, with the Hunter's Array outfit, the Silent Sting pistol, and the Raptor's Eye skill, which enables Lara to tag her enemies for persistent tracking. The Serpent's Heart (Mar 5) Confront the repercussions of a failed uprising! In order to save the lives of dedicated rebels, Lara Croft must navigate the treacherous waters of a never-before-seen challenge tomb, infiltrate an enemy barracks to stage a prison break, and face cultists in their mountain stronghold. This offers new customization options, with the Dragon Scales outfit, the Serpent Lash bow, and the Divine Bounty skill, which rewards Lara with more gold pieces when looting fallen foes. The Grand Caiman (Mar 29) A ferocious deity threatens the lives of innocent San Juan villagers. In order to protect local villagers from the aggression of Trinity, Lara Croft must hunt mercenaries, face the towering wrath of a volcanic new challenge tomb, and survive the lethal surpise concealed within. Equip the Force of Chaos Gear pack and unleash primordial hell on your foes. Blast your enemies to pieces with the Whispering Scourge. This suppressed shotgun will let you get the jump on your foes before you blow them away. You'll be able to safely charge into the fray with the Reptile Hide outfit, featuring plates offering resistance against projectiles and memory fabrics that increase experience from assault kills. The Path Home (Apr 19) follows the end of Shadow of the Tomb Raider, with the dust having settled and the battle over. However, when allies go missing, Lara must search ancient tunnels to try and find them. Lara’s new journey features a brand-new challenge tomb, which contains a secret that’s been hidden for ages. The Path Home features new customization options with the Midnight Sentinel outfit, the Silver Strike bow, and the Magic Touch skill, which allows Lara to use fewer resources to craft when on the run. | ||
