Customers admire the engaging gameplay, compelling story, and action-packed adventure in "Pre-Owned Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration". Many also praise the intuitive controls and the exploration opportunities available. While some found the game's challenge level and occasional technical issues to be drawbacks, the positive feedback on the core gameplay elements is overwhelmingly prevalent. The addition of VR functionality is also a frequently cited plus.
This is a great game that builds nicely on the original Tomb Raider (2013) and while nothing is as groundbreaking in Rise of the Tomb Raider (ROTTR) it is far more expansive, bordering on an action RPG. It has a much more deep customization tree with different kinds of loot required for each upgrade (instead of just salvage). This game actually makes hunting worth your time. ROTTR also has side quests that are long enough to be engaging and interesting, instead of the just the same "Find X and bring X to Y" cookie cutter quest. The graphics are gorgeous on a regular PS4 and I'm sure they are better on PS4 Pro or mind blowing on PC. Gameplay is smooth and it's really fun to use the bow. I don't get as much satisfaction out of the guns but I really like they included a bolt action rifle, which fits my play style a lot better than a AK-47. This 20 year celebration edition also gives Laura tons of outfits, which is really fun. The packaging is also beautiful for this edition. Overall, it's a really fun Tomb Raider experience. If you like adventure games you will love Rise of the Tomb Raider.

Anyone that played the first Tomb Raider reboot game will be thrilled for this one. My only complaint is that it comes in a cardboard book instead of a plastic or metal case like or normal games. It's also like a centimeter taller than other PS4 games, and it's asthetically displeasing
