Lara Croft is an old friend of many players from the nineties. She is like Mary Poppins, “flying” into our lives once every few years and visiting children once raised with love. In 2013, we had an unforgettable date in the game Tomb Raider, which became a turning point for the franchise. main character became much younger, and the developers decided to tell us the story of her first journey. This desire of the developers split the fans of the game into two camps. Some wanted to bring back the good old tomb raider, others asked not to change anything, continuing to make projects about the young charmer.

The second ones won and today we rejoice again storyline about a girl archaeologist wandering around Eurasia and beyond, in search of jewelry and important antiquities from various eras.

Specifically Rise of the Tomb Raider tells the story of Lara's expedition to the Urals. Somewhere between the distant Ural Mountains, the fugitive prophet hid the source of immortality. Do you also have a desire to make Lara’s life endless, so that she continues to delight us with new stories?

Today Miss Croft has reached the PC and is actively demanding our attention, like any woman we love. Lara brought more good than bad with its release to the all-encompassing platform, but it took a fair amount of work with some things like image adjustments. But first things first.

Let's start with the graphics. The iG editors have carefully selected for you a series of videos that show in detail the visual differences in the versions of the game. There are hopes that a similar picture will not arise with the PS4 version, but no exact information about the release date on Sony game consoles has been published. Here and below we will show the most important videos in comparison

Returning to the plot of the project, I’ll tell you that at the beginning of her journey, Miss Croft will visit Syria, tease us with warm landscapes, and then end up in Siberia (which also attracts foreigners: Tugnuska, Syberia). Alas, we won’t see sun and warmth until the very end credits. If we squint really hard, we'll see a familiar Kate Walker from comics genius Benoit Sokal. And a full set of Russian beauties is included.

The developers managed to show frozen Russia in such an interesting way that I am sure that hundreds of foreigners will want to visit the Ural Hills in their old age. Winter spruce trees give way to a vast cavern with a Byzantine galley frozen into the ice. The formidable mountain slopes greet Lara with an avalanche, and to top it all off, she ends up in an abandoned labor camp. Increased interest To gameplay manages to persist even in a small number of locations.

Rise of the Tomb Raider is undoubtedly the most spectacular part of the series in terms of the number of special effects. Although, as a joke, I have repeatedly said to the editor that the game could turn out to be a soulful runner for mobile platforms. Lara is in a hurry, running forward, and some local apocalypse often catches up behind her.

The locations, which grow evenly as the story progresses, migrated from Crystal Dynamics’ 2013 creation. I don’t consider this a disadvantage, because the project plays like a huge DLC for Tomb Raider.


New content introduces a separate cultural stupor - the story DLC Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch. And no, you are not blind and you read correctly. The add-on is free for season pass holders and tells the story of how Lara, who inhaled mushroom gases, sees “all sorts of things.” This time the role of “everyone” is played by hordes of assorted representatives of masked tribes and their terrible witch – Baba Yaga, who lives in a hut on chicken legs. Slavic folklore is done so well that you want to repeat this task again and again. Thematic video talks about him:

Caches of resources and artifacts are not the only coveted trophies. Pieces of historical information add up to interesting stories, and sometimes you are lucky enough to find tombs - small, detailed dungeons. Although they are small, after solving each puzzle you experience childlike delight. In addition to delight, passing through the tombs, the player gains survival abilities. For example, the very first puzzle will give you a skill that allows you to shoot a double arrow from a bow.

Artificial intelligence was more pleasing than last time. Enemies are served to Lara like dishes in an expensive restaurant - competently “served” with weapons and capabilities. As soon as one type of adversary becomes boring, a new one is issued.


The battle scheme is simple: in stealth mode we remove the most difficult guards, then we rush into the remaining ones with an ice ax in our hands, and finally we engage in a shootout with reinforcements.

Rise of the Tomb Raider does not have multiplayer. The creators decided to remove this feature as unnecessary - the demand was practically zero. In return, they will soon add an Expeditions mode. They will feature the same levels from the game, but with new conditions (no ammo in the pistol or no regeneration of health points).

final gradeiGuides: 4.5

The new Lara could still be interesting. Especially on PC. Colorful stories about Baba Yaga, this separate chapter on the travels of a young archaeologist. Maybe that's why she doesn't want to remember these events in the future? There is still no multiplayer, but is it needed? Re-released on PC, the game did not require drastic changes, so it came out “packed” with content as much as possible. IN A MORTUA AND WITH A BROOM! Therefore, our assessment of the PC version is higher than the project for Xbox One.

/ Baba Yaga

Now Baba Yaga has become the most modern witch. But she does not live in an elite house, but still in her old uncomfortable hut on chicken legs in a terrible impenetrable forest. Baba Yaga never sleeps. She constantly brings little naughty children into her hut and cooks them delicious soups and witchcraft potions. But this time grandma had a meltdown. The child she locked in the hut turned out to be quite smart. He quickly saw through Yaga's insidious plans and decided to find a way to escape. Help him accomplish his plans by solving various puzzles and unraveling logic puzzles. What lies ahead is to find a way to escape not only from the hut, but also from the forest, without falling into the clutches of the old witch. Place all the items found in the hut on the panel at the bottom of the screen. Find the necessary things to open the door and escape. Do this as quickly as possible, otherwise they will make soup out of the poor child and eat him. We advise you to be attentive to details. After all, clues and evidence can be hidden in the most unexpected places. Good luck!

DLC "Baba Yaga: Temple of the Witch" to the game Rise of the Tomb Raider- an awkward but commendable attempt by the developers to decorate the history of the camp life of a simple Soviet family with elements of Russian folklore. Of course, there is no mysticism: we immediately understand that we are not dealing with fairy-tale character, and with a highly qualified engineer with deep knowledge of chemistry. However, despite all the plot absurdities, the undoubted advantage of the addition was the unusual multi-tiered battle with “Baba Yaga”, who must be disarmed by cunning, but cannot be killed, because we still have to figure out who it really is.

From this guide you will learn, how to defeat Baba Yaga and win the final battle.

First, we are offered a warm-up in the form of red-eyed demons running towards Lara, whom she sees under the influence of a hallucinogen. A shotgun can handle them quite easily.

When Lara is left alone with Yaga flying in a mortar and throwing fireballs, it is useless to shoot at her, just transfer the cartridges. To deal real damage you need:

  • Being close to the rotating wheel with a reel, shoot at the mortar, so they will be connected, and the reel will begin to attract aircraft monster.
  • To prevent Baba Yaga from cutting the rope, we shoot at the mortar, forcing the enemy to take cover.
  • When the stupa is above the hatch, open the lid by turning the lever, and an explosion is heard.

This procedure must be repeated with the hatch on the other side of the pool, and with the hatches on the second, third and fourth tiers of the arena. You can get to the top when the water starts to rise. Swim towards the two suspensions, then jump to the ledge on the left and run to the vertical wooden stairs.

On every tier, demons and wolves will stand in your way, the best remedy against both of them - your shotgun; neither a rifle nor a bow will be that effective.

After you have fried the Yaga on the second tier, make a double descent down.

On the right along the corridor you will see a place where you can climb the rock with an ice ax. At the top, use the same ice pick to tear out the damper from the pipe, green gas will flow out. Here, on the third tier, there are two such pipes, they need to be opened.

Here you will find another hatch, to which you need to drag the mortar in the same way. To climb to the fourth tier, use the flying stone blocks. After the fifth explosion above the last hatch, the stupa will finally split and you can enjoy solving the mystery of Baba Yaga.

Now you know, How to win the final battle in the Baba Yaga: Temple of the Witch DLC for Rise of the Tomb Raider.

While at the Soviet base -

On the radio you will hear the guards talking:

- Headquarters, we have a local one here at the old sawmill! We wounded her, but missed her - there are traps everywhere. We've already lost one. We begin reconnaissance.

You will be directed to the sawmill. As you approach it, you will again hear the guards talking on the radio.

- Don't let the target get away. We need to find out why she followed the Bravo group.

After this you will be given a task - "Sawmill Incident"

We'll have to fight a little. After killing everyone, search the lockers (you need a box with a trace of blood).

In it you will find a girl named Nadya, she will ask you for help. (optional task*) Nadya’s grandfather could not come to terms with the death of his wife and he often told her that revenge haunted him. One fine day, he finally decided to go to the local witch Baba Yaga. But grandfather never returned. Nadya will ask us to find him.

*If you took the task, then Nadya tells you how to get to the valley.

-...go through the cave east of here.

The quest requires you to get to the Valley of Sin. On the way to it, you will come across the entrance to the tomb of the Voice of God.

It's in the upper left corner of the map. Here you will need a bow with a rope. A few jumps and after a couple of minutes you find yourself at the tomb itself. The entrance to the Valley of Sin is to the right of the tomb. There will be a camp nearby, do everything necessary and continue along the quest.

Entrance to the Valley of Sin


Upon entering the Valley, Lara will tell Nadya that she is feeling ill and then the connection will be lost, later it will become clear that poisonous gas filling the cave was created specifically from local flowers. (more on this below)

Move on. Lara gets even worse and begins to hallucinate. She sees her father, for now follow him. There's a little surprise here Screamer - Lara will finally meet Baba Yaga =)

But you won’t be able to fight her, the game won’t let you =) Instead, you’ll have to fight demonic wolves, there are quite a lot of them, so dodge often. Here I advise you to take a shotgun. After the fight, the hut will go straight to Lara; she has no choice but to jump into the water.

Here you will again have to climb up using ice axes.

And here is the mechanism that created the poison. Feel free to destroy everything))

Using the lever by the door, lower the cage (the one hanging from above) with the stones down, then secure it with a rope to the reel and finally break the rope using fire by pressing the other lever.

Lara will find a document containing a recipe for the antidote; by contacting Nadya, you will find out what ingredients you need to create the antidote. You will need to return to base and find flowers and a deer liver. The flowers are in the caves marked on the map,

and deer run nearby. Now it remains to find the last ingredient Phenotheosin, we move further to the base, in one of the depot buildings we take the last ingredient from the chest.

As soon as Nadya contacts you again, the soldiers will come running, we deal with them by taking an advantageous position from above. Nadya will make an antidote for herself, now you can visit Baba Yaga’s house and walk through the cave without hallucinations.

We return to Baba Yaga's lair. There's a puzzle waiting for us there. We solve it quite simply. The first rope is on the top reel and to the lever, we turn the reel and set up the platforms so that we can move along them. Next, we shoot quickly at the reel again, but now we fasten the rope to the post. All platforms are fixed. (Picture 2) You can now move along them to the second lever. On the next lever we throw the rope onto the reel located below (No. 3). The right platform, which was lowered before, now needs to be raised. To get to the second lever, we climb up taut rope, we turn the mechanism, the platform is raised, now we quickly jump along the platforms to the place we need. (yellow your path is marked =) good luck)



And here is the hut)

I won't spoil it. Just move forward.

So we came to the fight with the witch. Defeating her is not difficult; you will need a bow and a rope. We shoot back and at a convenient moment we tie Babushka Yaga to the reel; when the mortar flies over the cauldron, pull the lever. Then we all intuitively shoot and kill the henchmen.

Advice: when the mechanism pulls the witch to the cauldron, be sure to shoot at her, otherwise she will cut the rope.

So we defeated Baba Yaga and learned all her secrets.

We receive the reward: witch's robe.
