The third person action adventure video game titled "Rise of the Tomb Raider" currently has an unofficial release date. However, some of its gadgets have been unveiled that will allow the player to turn the tide against the unfavorable survival conditions that will be experienced in the upcoming game. GamesRadar was able to provide images of what Lara Croft will be equipped with when she is traversing the environment.

The trademark bow and arrow, which was present in the 2013 action adventure reboot "Tomb Raider," will be reappearing in "Rise of the Tomb Raider," along with a larger quiver in order to accommodate more arrows. In addition, there will be ammunition pouches, ranging from handguns, shotguns to automatic weapons such as rifles that will aid the player when they are progressing through the game.

Since Siberia will require the player to cover ground on mountainous terrain, equipment such as the axe and karabiner will also be included in the title. The aforementioned equipment will also provide assistance in solving puzzles, which are expected to be far more challenging compared to what players experienced in the 2013 game. A tactical knife and sheath have been added for melee combat as well as getting around the environment stealthily, which will be a necessary tactic when a direct approach will result in a quick death of the character.

"Rise of the Tomb Raider" will have its core plot revolving around Lara Croft and Jonah Maiava as they discover an ancient city built by the Grand Prince of Vladimir in the 13th century. If Jonah has an ulterior motive for accompanying Lara in the perilous expedition, it has not been stated yet. The title is expected to be released during the holiday season and will be a timed exclusive. The title will be released for the Xbox One platform and will be making its way to the Microsoft Windows and PS4 platform shortly afterwards.
