The official description of "Tomb Raider" says that the stakes could not be higher for Lara, who must learn to push herself above her limits as she readies to journey into the unknown.

Armed with nothing but her sharp mind, blind faith and stubborn spirit, if she survives this dangerous adventure, it could be the making of her and earn her the name Tomb Raider.
