This Time ‘Round, Tomb Raider’s Guide to Survival Looks at Combat

Tomb-Raider-Guide-to-survival-combatSquare Enix have been rolling out these Guide to Survival videos for the forthcoming Tomb Raider, to drum up even more interest than there already is, in Lara’s reboot.

Prior to watching Episode 3, why not check out Episode 1 and Episode 2 and get yourself up to speed on what Ms. Croft’s return will bring.

Below, you’ll see the female version of MacGuyver. Lara’s ability to utilise her surroundings are clear, as the dramatic narrator will tell you. Stealth appears to be just as important as the hand-to-hand battles that will occur. On top of that, the weapon upgrading system in Tomb Raider seems fairly primitive, but could prove to be rather effective to those who aren’t eager to spend 30 minutes fiddling about with custom-made guns.

As one of the many games that got delayed ’till Q1 of 2013, Tomb Raider has stiff competition in the likes of Bioshock and others. Fingers crossed that this reboot will make the Tomb Raider brand relevant, once again.

Tomb Raider will be released March 5 for Windows PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3
