Set in the deserts and ancient tombs of Egypt, this action-adventure sequel sends Lara Croft after the fragments of Osiris. She joins rival treasure hunter Carter Bell and the imprisoned gods Horus and Isis to stop Set, while contending with mythic creatures and the elements. The story gives its cooperative expedition a clear purpose: recover the relic’s pieces before Set can enslave mankind.
The game’s defining format is a fully cooperative story for up to four players, with friends taking the roles of Carter, Isis and Horus alongside Lara. Exploration, combat against enemies from the Egyptian underworld, traps and puzzles all call for teamwork, though cooperation has a competitive edge. Players can vie for treasure, artifacts and higher scores, choosing whether to help one another or pursue better rewards. Drop-in/drop-out play supports that shifting group dynamic, and the co-op is available both offline and online.
Its categories also list shared or split-screen play, alongside single-player and multiplayer. The description establishes those formats, while the game’s Egyptian setting, deadly hazards and rivalries give the adventure its particular character.
