Description[]

Tomb Raider I-III Remastered is a faithful recreation of the first three classical Tomb Raider adventures that also include the expansions. The games also feature a toggle button between the original graphics, and remastered one.[1]

Gameplay[]

Gameplay amongst the three games and their expansions remains the same, with additional modern controls that "take inspiration from the Legend, Anniversary, and Underworld era of Tomb Raider. These changes are felt mostly in the way Lara moves – the right stick has full camera control and Lara moves directionally based on camera position."[2]

Each game also features Photo Mode, allowing players to freeze the game, move Lara around in preset poses, change her outfit, facial expression, weapon held, roll the camera, and field of view.

For Tomb Raider and Unfinished Business, Lara can now perform a mid-air roll as she could in later sequels, as well as a 180-degree roll underwater.

For Tomb Raider III and The Lost Artefact specifically, Lara can now dive-roll, as seen in the beta footage of the game in 1998. As featured in Chronicles, Lara can also flip out of spaces from a crawl position.

The collection features trophy support, with over 250 trophies across all three games and their expansions.

Controversies[]

At the beginning of the game, a message says: "The games in this collection contain offensive depictions of people and cultures rooted in racial and ethnic prejudices. These stereotypes are deeply harmful, inexcusable, and do not align with our values at Crystal Dynamics. Rather than removing this content, we have chosen to present it here in its original form, unaltered, in the hopes that we may acknowledge its harmful impact and learn from it."[3]

In the second patch of the game, two promotional artworks of Lara from the original Core Design games in a closet from Tomb Raider III were removed.[4] The art was later added back into the game in the third patch.[5]

Reception[]

The game was well-received by both the critics and the public, with it's note on Metacritic being 78/100 in the Metascore and 7.8/10 in the Userscore.[6]
