"We know next to nothing about Lara Croft’s next adventure, but Crystal Dynamics’ 2013 reboot established a lot of faith that the series is moving in a promising direction. The first trailer for the new game shows Lara dealing with the aftermath of her horrific ordeal in the last game, but at the same time she’s drawn into another dangerous conflict. A closing shot from the trailer makes it abundantly clear that players won’t need to wonder any more about why the game’s title is Tomb Raider."
