As far as gameplay goes, the core gameplay mechanics from the Tomb Raider reboot will carry over.
In other news, according to Major Nelson, we now know what will be included in the Rise of the Tomb Raider Collector’s Edition. You’ll scavenge for various materials to create traps, healing items, grenades and more.
