Tomb Raider Definitive Edition reviews

As a fan of the early series on PS1, I was a little sceptical to see whether this modern rendition would stack up with the constant challenges and deaths experienced in those early games. I am so happy to say that scepticism was misplaced. Wow, what a game. My first impression was of the beauty of the environment, the character models and the weather effects. The cut scenes really tie in the story line, which although somewhat far-fetched, still bring in the dark undertones of the original series. I loved this game. There are so many challenges, traps and good old fashioned gun battles. Just good fun.

Am loving playing this game, the graphics are amazing and the gameplay is excellent

Took me a while to start playing it, and I also think Shanty Town takes too much time in the game, it's a stunning, rollercoaster ride. Just awesome and though I didn't finish it yet (~76% complete) I already want a Tomb Raider 2. Can not wait. Great atmosphere and graphics.

So good, so under appreciated

The definitive edition of Tomb Raider is simply the best Tomb Raider game (as it was already for the PS3/Xbox 360 gen) but now in the best possible Graphics. I could not stop playing the story was capturing the game play was brilliant. A good mix of nice puzzles and full on action.

Not a bad price and a great game

In simple words, loved this game.

One of my favourite games of all time!

Buy it. You will not be disappointed. GREAT GAME!

Graphics hold up even in 2021. Combat is surprisingly good.

Wasn't disappointed

Jump on board with Ms Nathan Drake, oops I mean Lara Croft, for a brilliant rollercoaster ride full of brilliant locations, brought together in a well written story. If you have yet to play it, why the hell not-

Rated five out of five, arrows to the face.

Lots of gunfights and a lot of hard core gameplay.

I love it so much

Good game, bought back memories.

Awesome game with polished graphics, gameplay and storyline. I'm glad that I waited for the PS4 version as it really is the definitive edition as the name implies. I'm looking forward now to getting Rise of the Tomb Raider to continue the story.

If you love Uncharted you'll love this. The first Tomb Raider game I've played on PS4 and I'm loving it. Visually stunning, action-packed, epic storyline that'll give you the chills.

Excellent

All I Can say is it's a great game

Fast service and quality product :)

Having first purchased this on PS3 when it was released, played through and now recently buying the definitive edition on PS4 this is must have for action adventure game lovers.

Featuring picture picturesque landscape Crystal Dynamics has put created a marvelous playground for Lara's journey to becoming the women as we know her.

The puzzles are fun and challenging and make tomb raiding that much more fun, the combat in intuitive, allows Lara to use the environment and has does QTE very well.

I cant wait for Rise of the Tomb Raider, just a pitty I will be waiting a year.

Great game. Played the original but really enjoyed playing this version. Graphics are much better creating an all round great experience

Great gameplay, great graphics. Well worth having.

I missed the original release on PS3 so I wanted to try it out on my new white PS4. Officially a new fan of Tomb Raider, this game is AWESOME.

This game is really fun. Graphics are really good, the scenery is amazing with a huge view distance. Found it a little dark in places but that's what the flaming torch is for. Gameplay is pretty good takes a bit of getting use to. Boss fights could have been a bit more challenging. It's not the “Last of us” but it's a good filler. Definatly recomend it.

Sheer fun and exhilaration. Very well scripted and hard to put down. Already played the PS3 version. So am impressed playing through the mighty PS4. Graphics are sharp and fine tuned!

Loads of violence and not so difficult to work out how to get through as prior games

Was my first proper intro to TR, and it was fantastic. I was hooked, first PS4 game I played start to finish.

Definitive Edition was a great excuse to play the game again. Plus additional gaming content, voice command and native 1080p.

I pre-ordered this without any former knowledge apart from that it won loads of awards, and I can say that it's really good. I'd recommend it to anybody that liked Uncharted. My only niggle with it is that it is very short, but there are lots of collectibles to sate your appetite for more.
