The Lore of Tomb Raider: The Crypt of Chronos

The Chronos Artifact is an ancient enigma whispered to possess mastery over time itself. Legend holds that it rests within the elusive Kairos, a mysterious Greek island that only appears once every two centuries.

Renowned adventurer Lara Croft has unraveled the veil of myth! With a rift in time beckoning, the seasoned archaeologist embarks on a perilous journey to Kairos, driven by the pursuit of this fabled relic.

Yet, she is not the only one with the island in her sights...

A nefarious organisation from her past, Natla Tech, emerges from the shadows believing the artifact and its influence over time will allow them to rectify their old mistakes and put their plans back on track.

The island's indigenous guardians, the Protectors, find themselves outmatched by Natla Tech's formidable military operation, facing an onslaught for which they are ill-prepared.

Lara must navigate treacherous terrain, evade cunning traps, and confront both the forces of nature and the relentless advance of her adversaries. Her struggle unfolds as a race against time itself, as she searches for the Crypt of Chronos, and strives to safeguard it from falling into the clutches of the encroaching NATLA invasion.

Miniatures - a first look

The game features a number of high-quality miniatures. Here is a first look at some of the adversaries Lara will face on her adventure:
