Story
In her first adventure, Lara Croft was forged into a true survivor, but she glimpsed a deeper, secret world. In the next chapter of her journey, Lara must use her survival skills and wits and ultimately accept her destiny as the Tomb Raider.

After she encountered an immortal being, Lara spent a year researching eternal life to both understand and prove what she saw. This research leads on her on a quest to find Kitezh, a mythical city both founded and lost in what is now Russia's Siberian tundra.

Characters

 * Lara Croft
 * Samantha Nishimura
 * Jonah Maiava
 * Joslin Reyes

Levels
Siberian Wilderness ( probably first mission)

Gameplay
Little is known about the gameplay, however judging from the demo game-play, the game-play is pretty similar to the one in Tomb Raider 2013 although instead of salvage to upgrade weapons, Lara will have to collect specific materials around the environment such as deer skin or mushrooms in order to create outfits, upgrade weapons, upgrade ammo, make ammo for your weapon and to restore Lara's health. Some materials can only be found in exotic destinations, at a specific time of the day and possibly in specific parts of the destination. There will be a lot more options available at base camps. There will also be new tactics, such as in the demo game-play where Lara can climb up trees and shoot from there, tackle enemies and punch them or hiding in bushes and also as shown in the demo game-play, Lara can throw objects to distract enemies.

Demo Game-play

Released on June 15th, there is a demo game-play based on probably the first mission in Rise of the Tomb Raider, " Siberian Wilderness". This demo game-play was released only for X-box exclusive.

Spoiler alert!

In this demo game-play, Lara along with Jonah are climbing a snowy mountain in order to reach some kind of city although a avalanche comes and separates Jonah from Lara. When Lara manages to dig herself out of the snow she tells Jonah through her radio to not try look for her. Lara sees that the storm that caused the avalanche still hasn't gone and she settles for the night in a small campsite she creates along with the bow. While sleeping, Lara is awaken by her radio in which she hears that a bunch of henchmen from Trinity are around the forest killing anything moving. Before a henchmen reaches Lara's campsite she climbs up a tree and kills him. After going around the forest and killing the henchmen, Lara retrieves a radio where another henchmen is talking but then it sounds like he is killed by a bear. Then again Lara goes around the forest in order to find the ruins of the lost city she is looking for. She arrives in some part of the forest and sees a henchmen's dead body when a bear comes out of a cave and starts attacking Lara. Lara runs through the forest but then is injured by the bear and throws her off a small rock. While bandaging her wound she sees some kind of military base down the rock she is standing. She decides she wants to go there but she's got to go through the cave the bear came out from. Lara settles in another camps near the bear's cave and then she decided to engage the bear into a fight in order to get inside the cave. After killing the bear she will go through the cave and will stop when she reaches a certain point and then it will be the end of the demo game-play.
