If Rise of the Tomb Raider worked for you because of strong narrative focus, open world exploration and melee combat, the same is here. Both also lean on exploration and discovery, and single-player focus. The distance is in world — its own ground is a sandbox world.

What brings it close to Rise of the Tomb Raider is strong narrative focus, open world exploration and melee combat, and the two track each other on genre, combat and game mode. Both also lean on a third-person camera and single-player focus. The distance is in progression and tone — its own ground is dark, oppressive atmosphere.

It predates Rise of the Tomb Raider by 11 years, with what that implies technically.
