Crystal Dynamics’ latest earned a 90% score. The magazine had high praise for Tomb Raider’s visuals – the title was given a 95% rating in the category.
Players can look forward to 10-15 hours for the main story, though GamesMaster notes that it’ll take 20 to fully explore the island.
The magazine also enjoyed the “vivid” hubs and final third of the game “with its spectacular bombast”. GamesMaster wished Tomb Raider included more side tombs, but the ones present in the game are a joy to discover. For those wondering: there aren’t many quick time events.
GamesMaster sums up:
“Sitting back exhausted we were left with just one question dribbling forth from our gaping jaws. How on earth are they going to top this in the sequel? Because of one thing there can be no doubt. Lara is back.”
Look out for a whole slew of Tomb Raider reviews early next week. Square Enix will be ending the game’s embargo on Monday – over a week before the game launches.
This got me hyped

Sweet. We should be reviewing this so hope we think the same. When I played it at gamescom I thought graphics were amazing but wasnt overly impressed with gameplay

Are any of the old Tomb Raider titles worth trying?

I think I'll wait for the embargo to lift Monday
Not that it will change my purchase, I got one of the limited editions on pre-order

Glad to see the good review, be interesting to see what others say. Won't be picking this up straight away though.
