Tomb Raider: Chronicles (2000)

After the occurrences depicted in “The Last Revelation“, Lara Croft is entombed in an ancient Egyptian structure, leading many to believe she has perished. At her funeral, loved ones reflect on mysteries from her past life. Journey with Lara as you uncover hidden escapades, discovering fresh gameplay elements such as stealth and high-wire traversal!

Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness (2003)

Facing charges for murder, Lara goes into hiding as a wanted individual, discovering a chilling plot surrounding secretive alchemy research and the pursuit of old relics. The fate of the world rests in Lara’s hands, as she works to thwart this dark partnership from releasing its formidable forces.
