Just to note - this is now on pre-load if you have bought it already.

Steam still holding on pre-load completed.
Mind you it's not supposed to release until tomorrow.

It’s been getting middling reviews but I’m enjoying it. The graphics are something else, epic on a 4K tv.
Seems more challenging than the previous 2,even on normal you can die very quickly in the firefights.

Bout 20% through as of yesterday, I really like these games so I'm happy with it. Looks stunning too, pretty punishing on the PC with all the settings turned up!

The graphics are pretty impressive.



The game is really good too, thoroughly enjoying it. A lot of reviews are saying it doesn't innovate enough, but for me - who really enjoyed Rise - it's an improvement across the board.

More of the same, but better.

Picked it up yesterday on the PS4 as had a £10 Argos voucher that needed using up - it is very pretty on the PS4 Pro enhanced mode. Game play seems very similar to the previous 2 (of the reboot line) so if you enjoyed them then it is more of the same.

There is definitely less combat and more exploration / tomb raiding though.
