Here are 5 things that you need to know about "Rise of the Tomb Raider"

1. The game will take place in Siberia

According to the site, Lara will go to Siberia to find the ancient city of Kitezh. This began from when her father became obsessed with myths and immortality. In her quest to discover the hidden city and find the truth behind her father's obsession, she battles with an organization called Trinity.

2. There will be actual tombs to raid

Crystal Dynamics has taken Lara back to her roots and remind people why she was given the titular title. According to Games Radar, there will be more treasure hunting this time around.

"We have more Challenge tombs, and they're also more robust as far as an experience goes," said game director Brian Horton, as reported by the site. "Getting into them is interesting; solving them is more challenging; and just that journey of getting lost in a big exploration space and discovering them, it really has a nice feeling of reward."

3. In addition to Lara's tomb raiding skills, her survival skills will come into play

According to creative director Noah Hughes, there have been additions that can help increase Lara's skills in the game.

"There are over 15 resources in the game that can be used to upgrade weapons and gear, heal, create special ammo and outfits, and improvise explosives and grenades in combat," Hughes said, via Examiner. "Some resources are rarer than others, so in order to scavenge, hunt, and gather most successfully, the player will have to pay attention to the wildlife and ecosystems and be resourceful."

4. There is a multiplayer-ish mode

You can't play with your friends but you can compete with them. According to CNET, the Expedition Mode allows you to compete with a friend by completing a level in the campaign and the highest score will determine the winner. You can also replay levels to beat old scores and make custom level challenges for friends.
