Honestly, shadow-dropping this remaster feels like a power move, and including all that bonus content is just chefs kiss. It’s the perfect excuse to dive back into Lara’s gritty origin story without breaking the bank.
Nice to see this gem getting the shadow-drop treatment - feels like finding an unexpected collectible in a game. The price point makes this an easy recommendation for both newcomers and fans wanting to revisit Lara's origin story.
