Although I’ve only owned and played this game for a couple of hours since being delivered I’m totally in love with Lara again.
The game install is 20Gb and the update required at launch is 7 GB. It took some time as I eagerly waited to play the game.
Controls are nice and smooth and if you’ve ever played Tomb Raider will be familiar to you.
I’m playing on 65 inch 4K LG and it is like watching a movie. The fluidity of this game is amazing.
The only down side so far is there are a lot of cut scenes. Not quite worth losing a star over, but pretty dang close.

After the incredible Rise of the Tomb Raider, I was very excited for what is supposed to be the end of a three-part story. Unfortunately, Shadow of the Tomb Raider does not live up to my expectations. It has quite a few bugs, and the story falls apart in the third act. The ending isn't all that satisfactory, but the combat and puzzles are still top-notch. If you enjoyed the others, you'll most likely enjoy this one too. Might want to wait for a sale though.

Great game. Graphics are the best so far. Buy this if you are into this particular series. It has decent puzzles and the storyline flows very well. The developers did a great job on this title. This is one of the better in the series with 4K enhancement. Keep it coming.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the best of the series. It incorporates all the elements of story, action, combat, crafting, and of course raiding tombs from the last two games and combines it all in the best entry of the series.

I’m enjoying this game with my gf. She loves Tomb Raider. I remember playing the original Tomb Raider on PS1 and it was an awesome time. My gf really enjoys this game. The graphics have come a long way. This game is like watching a movie. It has an interesting story as well. I wish this game was more on the radar lime those AAA titles. Hopefully they come out with another on the next gen systems that will blow everyone away. All in all I give it a 7.5/10.

You remember the greatness of playing the first Tomb Raider title on PS one? No! Well missed out. The Tomb series is so much fun to play. Some of the puzzles can be a challenge, but it is rewarding when you figure out the puzzles. Just good basic fun with just enough storyline to keep you interested . I purchased this game new on sale for under $10. Great price and what a value.

This is a game that shows off what the Xbox One X can really do with a 4k display with HDR. The textures, lighting, and shadows are superb. While the story, in my opinion, isn't the best of the Tomb Raider reboot franchise, it's still strong. I also high recommended the definitive content for those seeking additional challenge tombs.

So I bought this game along with RIG 800XL headphones that were dolby atmos capable. This game was designed for dolby atmos. The 4k graphics look amazing, all the colors in the jungle, but with dolby atmos headphones the sounds of the jungle immerse you in the game. I brought some food home & decided to play for as little bit to see how it looked & sound. Needless to say MY FOOD GOT COLD. No regrets, worth every penny, get dolby atmos to get the full experience of the games audio & 4k video. Sensory Overload Of Pleasure.

it took me just shy of 8 hours to beat this game. to me this was the best in this series and is very similar in feel and play to the uncharted series. the graphics are excellent and noticeably better than previous versions. Story is very compelling and at points my wife thought this could be a movie.
