The Lara Croft pictured above has been said to be 21 years old in the game and will have to fight for survival on a mysterious island. It has been confirmed that while playing as Lara you will need to find bare necessities such as food, water & tools to create to keep Lara alive.
"Noah Hughes of Crystal Dynamics claims Lara will experience an emotional journey as she learns to survive, and weapons sighted so far in concept art include a bow, shotgun and pistol. Apparently too, previous games' lock-on targeting system has been ditched in favour of free-aim combat more akin to Uncharted and its ilk."

EVERYTHING WE KNOW SO FAR[/CENTER]
* Lara is 21 in this game
* It’s a reboot of the franchise and as a result there will be no “real” Lara model this time.
* They’re doing performance capturing with this game
* There are brutal deaths in the game this time. One is described as a deranged man stabbing Lara in the chest and then closing her eyes after she’s dead. Another includes a boulder falling on her leg to trap her before another falls and crushes her head.
* CD won’t talk specifics on weapons but concept art shows a bow, shotgun and pistol
* The lock on targeting system is gone and it now has a free aim system. CD says that it can compete with any of their competitors.
* “I think that the major difference between this game and the old is the concept of smoke and mirrors,” begins Darrell Gallagher, the studio head at Crystal Dynamics. “There was an illusion of freedom because of streaming and loading that would pop you out in a different location, but this is absolutely real. You can literally go any direction that you see and carve your own way to the finish line instead of being guide.”
*Here you can combine items to create something new and access a skill system to upgrade Lara’s abilities. You’ll also be able to use base camps to fast travel to different locations to minimize backtracking.
* You’ll need to gather food and water in order to survive
* There are humans in the game, including some of the crew members from the shipwreck off the coast of the island.
"Forget everything you knew about Tomb Raider," said developer Crystal Dynamic's Studio Head Darrell Gallagher. "This is an origins story that creates Lara Croft and takes her on a character defining journey like no other."
