Shadow of the Tomb Raider: The Nightmare

The Nightmare is the title of the third (after The Forge and The Pillar) DLC to the action adventure game Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Just like the base version of this production, the add-on was developed by Eidos Montreal.

Plot

In Shadow of the Tomb Raider: The Nightmare Lara Croft returns to her family estate. The protagonist intends to know the secret of another tomb, whose confidant until now was Uchu, a character known from the base game; besides, the woman has to face the demons of her past. The realization of this task will allow the fearless Croft to lay her hands on a mysterious, powerful weapon.

Mechanics

As mentioned above, Shadow of the Tomb Raider: The Nightmare introduces a new tomb, in which, in addition to the puzzles waiting to be unraveled, Lara encounters well-known opponents; however, they behave in a completely different way than the enemies she has dealt with so far. As a reward for dealing with the new challenges, the protagonist wins the costume Scales of Q, an axe called Grip of Fear, and the ability of White Breath, thanks to which the fear arrows gain an AoE propery.

Technical aspects

The Nightmare is a non-standalone add-on, requiring the base version of the game to work.
