Tomb Raider Debut Trailer is Light on Gameplay, Heavy On Eye Candy


The latest Lara Croft adventure from Crystal Dynamics goes back to the roots of the series inside the merely titled Tomb Raider. The story will wind back the clock to focus on a 21-year-old Lara soon after she is shipwrecked on an island that's somewhere in the vicinity of Japan. Embracing a far more open-world approach, the young thrill-seeker very first need to figure out a way to survive immediately after waking up washed ashore with no tools, weapons or other supplies to assist her. All of this setup is showcased in a newly released debut trailer for the game, premiering just days prior to the major details emerge at E3.

Tomb Raider Debut Trailer is Light on Gameplay, Heavy On Eye Candy
The debut trailer for Tomb Raider is an all-CG visual feast showing off Lara Croft's unfortunate seafaring encounter with a raging storm and her subsequent stranding on a (seemingly) deserted island.





If you are seeking for gameplay, this isn’t the trailer for you. Don’t let that quit you from hitting play though. This is often a gorgeous small CG film short, hopefully (presumably) 1 that is indicative of the final game’s cutscenes. If the actual play looks even half as great as this does, we’re in for a treat. Uncharted has handily surpassed the Tomb Raider series in recent years, at the least in the production values department. It looks like Crystal Dynamics wants to reclaim that crown for Lara’s newest adventure, and we’re perfectly fine with that. Keep in mind: when game development studios go to “war” in trying to one-up the other’s function, we all win.

Have a look at the trailer below and be dazzled. And obviously, remain tuned to Digital Trends all next week for the latest news and updates from E3!
