In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Lara must master a deadly jungle, overcome terrifying tombs, and persevere through her darkest hour.

The star of the 2013 Tomb Raider reboot and the Rise of the Tomb Raider, Camilla Luddington, makes her return as Lara Croft with yet another stunning performance in Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

As she races to save the world from a Maya apocalypse, Lara will be forged into the Tomb Raider she is destined to be.

Join the Eidos-Montréal team as they dive into these fresh experiences, which deliver all-new challenge tombs many playable in co-op. The team explores Tomb Raider’s rich lore with multiple side-missions, and even more customization possibilities with unique outfits, weapons and skills.

The Forge, the first of seven new DLC adventures for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, will be available as a free download to all Season Pass holders, and sold separately on November 13, 2018.

In “The Forge”, Lara must brave the lava-flooded Forge of the fallen gods to uncover the secrets of Kuwaq Yaku. Throughout her journey, Lara will uncover details about a friend’s ancient legacy, and overcome a danger long thought to be lost in flame. “The Forge” delivers a brand-new challenge tomb, playable in both solo and co-op. Players who complete the challenge tomb will be rewarded with the Grenadier skill, Brocken outfit, and Umbrage 3-80 weapon.

A completely new adventure, “The Forge” is the first of seven monthly DLC adventures available through the Season Pass, providing players with an abundance of new content, challenge tombs, co-op experiences, weapons and outfits, Score Attack and Time Attack modes, and additional narrative side missions.

Lara Croft has mastered an unforgiving jungle, explored vast landscapes filled with tombs, and battled Trinity for the fate of Humanity, all set against the backdrop of the Maya apocalypse. Yet even more adventures await in the hidden City of Paititi. New mysteries and challenges will arise, friendships and rivalries will deepen, and above all, new tombs will be discovered in a series of DLCs that expand the world of Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

The Season Pass is available for $29.99 or “The Forge” can be purchased as a standalone for $4.99.
