95 percent positive Steam reviews speak for themselves: Tomb Raider is a real cracker!

Tomb Raider on sale on Steam: A good deal?
For a mere two eurosand a few pennies, you get the rights to use a digital copy of Tomb Raider. You can have a lot of fun with it: with a mixture of open hub levels and fast-paced script sequences, the single-player campaign is a real tour de force and has a minimum playing time of twelve hours:
Also on GOG.com
Tomb Raider is also available on GOG.com, where the GOTY edition costs three euros more. The multiplayer mode is disabled, but you can play the title DRM-free.
The game still looks good today. In particular, Lara’s hair blowing in the wind, thanks to AMD’s then-new TressFX technology, caused amazement. A Definitive Edition update replaced the protagonist’s face with a new visage.
Those who have never played this classic of the genre should do so now, even if very old series veterans have to adjust. Despite mostly optional puzzle-solving, the “new” Tomb Raider has little in common with the original series in terms of gameplay.
This is a modern reimagining with more action and pace than the more deliberate older parts. If you want to play those, you’ll be happy with the faithful remaster of Tomb Raider 1-3. More new releases have just been announced:
Other Steam offers for Tomb Raider
By the way, the normal version for two euros is fully sufficient: the DLCs in the six-euro more expensive Game-of-the-Year-Edition mainly concern the unimportant multiplayer mode, and many of them are just special items and skins.
The situation is different for the Tomb Raider Definitive Survivor Trilogy, which has been discounted by as much as 94 percent. For around twelve euros (normally over 200!), you get a total of 21 products, including the three main games from 2013, Rise of the Tomb Raider and the last major game in the series from 2018, Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
The offer is valid until October 24, 2024.
The GlobalESportNews reviews for all three games were extremely positive, with particular praise for the atmosphere, action, and open-world elements (especially in Rise and Shadow). If you haven’t played this trilogy of great games yet, the current Steam sale on Tomb Raider is the perfect opportunity to wipe this stain from your gaming soul.
