As a young woman, Lara Croft is in search of adventure — and herself. As she embarks on an exploratory quest to test her mettle and see where each new path leads, her hunt for adventure in turn comes looking for her. Now, stranded away from civilization and equipped with only her instincts and the ability to push herself beyond the threshold of human endurance, Lara must look inside and find what she needs to fight for her survival.Stranded on a forgotten island, Lara's only hope of escape is to unravel its dark history. Take on the role of this relentless fighter as she faces everything the island can throw at her — guide her through physics puzzles, challenging environments and a heart-pounding storyline packed full of harrowing situations in an effort to make it out alive. Faced with increasingly intimidating enemies and environments, you must engage in visceral third-person combat in a dynamic, gear-securing gameplay loop that rewards your explorative spirit. Each new area that you explore gains you experience points that are necessary to upgrade your gear and weapons, which in turn allow you to explore even more areas to gain even more gear and weapons. With access to all of the downloadable content in this Game of the Year Edition, the adventure is seemingly endless — and each new challenge you defeat allows you to grow your Xbox LIVE gamer score. See if you have what it takes to match Lara's adventurous personality and escape the island alive.
