Rise of the Tomb Raider Blood Ties trailer is full of zombies

Tomb Raider is a very popular and loved franchise, both as a movie and as a video game. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the charismatic character Lara Croft, and on this occasion Microsoft is launching a new content update. The Rise of the Tomb Raider update is available for PC and the Xbox One console.

Blood Ties is a new story chapter where you will be able to explore the Croft Manor. The goal here is to reclaim Lara’s legacy and defend the Manor from a zombie invasion in the “Lara’s Nightmare” episode.

There is also a new difficulty setting the company added, called “Extreme Survivor“. Moreover, you will also be able to use a new weapon and outfit with the 20 Year Celebration theme and you can play in the Expedition modes using classic Lara models. Another addition that has fans cheering up is the new Co-op play in the Endurance mode. This is in fact a free upgrade that everybody who bought the Endurance DLC or the Season Pass will receive automatically.

However, fans will have to wait a little bit until they receive all the goodies Microsoft has prepared for them. The new content will be rolled out to the Season Pass starting from October 11. Players who already own the Season Pass will get the entire additional content for free. The Season Pass includes a much appreciated expansion called “Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch”, together with another one, “Cold Darkness: Awakened“. They are played in single player mode and you have to fight lots of infected predators somewhere in the wild Siberia.
